1 Brown trout 3" approx caught on wet greenwell's - returned.

Georgeous beat.

No fish caught by any of rods. Water slightly coloured from thunderstorms night before. May fly hatch extensive but minimal fish activity. Overall, very few fish apparent.

Water low and clear with a strong downstream wind and some heavy showers. CJK had 2 undersized trout from faster water on a olive nymph and olive quill (wet). JW had 2 undersized fish on an olive nymph.

Beautiful Beat, difficult access in places. River extremely low, no fish even seen, nothing rising or even spotted in deeper pools.

1 brown trout, 1 lb caught on a dry olive, late evening rise, not much else rising.

A tough afternoon fishing on what is a stunning beat of the Usk. The few fish we found rising were very selective and were not going to take anything that didn't look 100% right.
This is a very long beat with some great looking runs that must have surely had some big fish lurking in them.
Would be nice to return to complete the top half of the beat hopefully with a bit more water in the river.
5 trout between us up to 12" but non of the famous Usk lumps we'd hoped for.

Lovely river, fished most of the day, NZ method. Little fly life and no fish rising but it was quite a cold day, with rain showers and gusty wind. No fish caught

Very little fly life. Very bright windy day. Saw no fish, caught no fish. Beautiful beat which deserves a visit when spring has properly sprung that high up the valley. Was slighly surprised to 'share' the beat with 3 blokes spinning and one chucking a swim feeder in to a deep pool.

WUF note: the owner will be made aware of the other anglers. Please report any suspected poaching activity as soon as possible.

First time on this beautiful beat, and I look forward to returning in May. An unseasonably warm and sunny day, and a decent hatch of LDO's and March Browns in the middle of the day, but sadly, I did not see a single fish rise all day, and after several changes from nymphs to dry to wet, there was not the remotest hint of a fish.

Beautiful gin clear river with some good midday/afternoon hatches. Few fish to be seen although I did spot and spook a massive grayling.
