Feedback & Reports

Lovely water for the fly today but my day was annoyingly curtailed by a broken rod only two hours in. I have to mention the staff down at Airflow though. One phone call, and I have a new top section for my V2 waiting for me on the way home. Superb service.

Washed off.

Flogged the beat again today 10.00 until 5.30.
Another salmon blank, but a nice height for the fly now at 2’.

Spent all day fishing the beat above the Croy. Nice height and clarity all day. No salmon seen or caught. Quite a number of trout went after a Posh Tosh.

Fishing levels have dropped to a reasonable level although another 1.5 ft would of been better whilst fishing on Llanstephen Sunday, clarity of the water was around 18 inches. Fished where it was possible to cast a fly, didn't expect much with the height of water and clarity tbh. Fished most of the beat with only a couple of small taps to the fly.

Finished and went to have a look at the Rectory beat, met a couple of nice fellers at the hut and had a good chat, the hut has been broken into with the pad lock hanging on the door. Nothing seen..

Dry fly and nymphing methods used in middle section of beat. No fish taken nor seen. Lovely stretch of water, very peaceful.

2 Grayling

Quite a bit of flow in the river today. No grayling caught but that was probably down to my poor Euro nymphing technique! More lessons are needed!

I did see a good salmon near the waterworks, however!

River dropping back now at 1ft.
A bit breezy and leaves aplenty.
Fished Orchard and Chapel catches.
Nothing caught or seen.
