Very quiet not a bite all day water gin clear a big salmon threw itself into the air by me. As you enter the beat owner says a lot of salmon in pool directly to the left. The owner said lots of people say either nothing here or a great day fishing. There are hardly any gutters here so I think it’s all about water height and colour. Used a Klink and dink with small beaded grhe on the point and pink nymph above and klinkhammer. Wading and casting here are easy. Beautiful patch of river lots of benches waterside to sit.

River was in lovely condition. Three OOS trout up to approx 3/4lb and one salmon parr, all safely returned. No sign of any grayling. All taken on nymph.

Water low but a number of fish seen

Another hot and sunny day. The river was low but clear and there were fish rising throughout the period that we fished. Beautiful spot. Plan to return, next time with longer rods, which we remembered belatedly is exactly what we concluded last time we fished it.

A cold day and even colder water but some hatch activity. The water was very low and clear. There was a prolonged (maybe 1 hour) hatch of BWO attracting some rises. I managed to attract two very large brown trout with a CDC dry pattern but only netted one of these (a beautiful 18" specimen) - I thought the 'one that got away' was even bigger. A lovely 4 hours....

Two grayling caught in the first five minutes - one being one and a half pounds. Both on a dry Klinkhammer - nothing else for the rest of the day.

Good to see Edward the owners son out fishing - I hope he catches his first grayling soon!

Spent the afternoon on this beat as I’ve never fished it before and I must say that it’s a hidden gem. The Irfon was still running a little high and the water was pushing through so swinging nymphs what’s the order of the day. Picked up 2 reasonable grayling and one OOS browning.
A nice afternoon and I’ll be back when the water is running at a good pace
