Feedback & Reports

Very low water so we chased trout rather than salmon as planned but even they were very reluctant....or we were very innefficient! Instructor Chris Price was helpful and instructive so at least our casting has improved. The Cottage of Content at Carey was quite outstanding so should definitely be on any list of recommended pubs. Our thanks again for your help. Best wishes!

Good conditions with the river falling and clearing after a large spate but no sign of any salmon. Some wondeful trout fishing below the bridge in the evening.

Nothing seen, river on its bones !

x2 11" BT and 1 small brownie all caught on dry Elk Hair Caddis. 1 trout kept.
Hot cloudless day, fishing good until about 12.30pm when all activity stopped. Lovely river and will certainly fish it again. Thanks for arranging.

3 Trout

The chub and 3 of the brown trout were small in size about 6 inches and a couple of 1lb brown trout as well. Water level was low and weather was over 25C.

5 Trout, 1 Chub

6 WBT caught and released. Best fish was approx 1.5lb. All caught using klink n dink with point fly copper bead head Endrick Spider taking one on the Quarry stretch and the rest taken on a bead head red kneck PTN between Campwll and High bank. Water was quite coloured with good flow but not fished the Usk before so don't know if this is the norm for this beat at this time of year. Outstanding fishery and ability to drive majority of the beat also very useful.

6 Trout

1 taken on dry fly. Felt like a cool steam room on the river. Another easily arranged day on the Usk.

4 Trout

Not much activity despite good conditions. 2 trout on dry fly, both around 1.5lb.
