Fished fly but no pulls or contact made. Two salmon jumped in rock pool and 1 in bridge pool. Water very dirty and water visibility only 1ft. Slipped on boulders in bridge pool and went for a dip. Felt soles and studs a must.

River too coloured.

Water was very coloured, almost muddy in aspect, there was a huge downpour the day before. I first thought about cancelling till I saw the first salmon jump out on the rock pool. In total I must have seen a dozen jumps in 4 different pools.
Anyway, I tried my best all day but no salmon and only one large trout on a cascade tube.

Another surprisingly poor day... Even though the water is low, there is still quite a lot of water present and all the fish that were there are still there (bar any predated upon). There was just about no sign of any trout or coarse fish at all. I saw two trout rise.

In my first meaningful cast I hooked a beautiful 2lb trout, which after a stern fight, got off (b*****d!). It unsettled a salmon I didn't know was there and they both leapt! I saw a few salmon - more than all other fish put together, one of which was very big - possibly 30lb....

Rain due now. Roll on next week!

Fishing small flies through some of the faster water in the beat with 6 inches on the Llanstephan gauge and on hot and sticky evening with occasional rain. Nothing to report except accidental trout and chub. Fish showing in the Millstream and Neck of Rectory.

One coloured fish 12lb in Mill stream with Japanese Lure for Cherry salmon.

A surprisingly slow day, this.... After some rain on Tuesday and the river rising a bit I expected there to be more signs of life. Whilst there were a few trout rising, it was mainly coarse fish in evidence, with on only one showing of a salmon all day. The Rock Pool seemed lifeless too....

I caught some small trout and a perch!
