Feedback & Reports

This was my second visit to the beat. Wonderful, again. All fish caught on a self tied (barbless) tenkara style/spider emerger pattern fished both upstream and cast across and downstream. It was cloudy and cold. While there was a fair amount of fly life there was very little surface activity. 1 very large trout hooked but lost just before the net!

3 Trout, 3 Grayling

River was slightly up and flowing well though algae remaining on the rocky sections made wading treacherous. The grayling were looking up and rising confidently to a s18 or s20 Griffiths Gnat and the best was 17".

The beat is lovely and Mr Woosnam was extremely helpful when we contacted him for inside info re the fishing. The fishing on this particular day was tricky but it was still immense fun.

Weather great, River at a nice height, fished along the 'Ivy Tree' stretch for a few hours, again a bit of a struggle getting through the undergrowth in the area of Pen Rhiw, but a beautiful stretch of river.

1 Grayling

River was high with some colour, the path along the bank is very overgrown in some places from Pen Rhiw to Hafrenna Brook.

Wet and Windy, did not fish

Both fish caught using the Duo method, fish taken on the dropper, small pink scud.
Water was coloured but good height. Access to the river very restricted at the bottom of the beat.
No fish rising at all. Parked at the church, couldn’t see how to access the left bank.

River running quite high,slight colour in water. I caught 8 lovely trout,with the best going around 2lb.
Fish were all in very good condition and fought very well indeed. All fish were returned to fight another day.
All fish were caught using a french leader and weighted nymphs. Really enjoyed my day here, will def return again soon, hopefully the Grayling will play on my next visit. Stunning river, with stunning surroundings.

Absolutely stunning beat with great birdlife. Fishing a little more tricky today with the rain now some time ago, but I managed a few on nymphs. Lots of parr and very small trout around - usually fell off the hook before being landed - but I had 3 which were 13-15". Best fish was in fact a super 16" grayling.
