Feedback & Reports

A rare early season trip for me where I found the river running a good foot and a half higher than my usual summer level lows. I used a team of march brown wets to good effect hooking 4 fair sized grayling. The best, a good fighter, weighed in at around 1 1/2 lb. Saw a few trout rising, but all too wily to take anything I offered. Packed in at around 1630 when the river temperature finally got the better of my hands.

4 Grayling

Just about fishable with a spinner first thing, but cleared enough to fish a big tube later. A few accidental trout. No sign of Salmon.

Nil return

Fished only a couple of pools, river still carrying a bit of extra water. There didn't seem to be a lot of bird life either which is not like the beat. Sometimes you meet people enjoying teaching their sport and being very courteous at the same time, 4 canoeists came through me but kept well out of my way, even had a wave. Back to the fishing, didn't see a trout rise nor any salmon, didn't catch any either. One thing to note somebody has left a pair of wading boots in the hut, must of been recent as they were still wet through

Fished with my mate , for most of the day, like him it was good to see people behaving themselves, nothing seen or touched

With my mates fishing the bottom pools I headed up to the top of the beat ,it was higher than expected but fishable . First cast a trout, second cast another trout after that nothing was seen or touched

Couldn't locate grayling today

A very sleepy river for most of the day. An unproductive morning below the bridge apart from two good size grayling from Dolmeudwy. Surprisingly, fish came onto the take very late in the afternoon with many offers to a tungsten bead GRHE in the Ferry. Couldn’t keep many of them on for very long though.

A nice day on the river with the stiff downstream breeze providing good casting practice conditions with the double hander.

1 Trout, 4 Grayling

3 of us fishing, the oops trout was a beauty, about 2.5lb . Released straight from landing net and swam away stongly. Grayling all about 12oz. Saw an otter which was the highlight of the day.

2 Trout, 3 Grayling

Grayling were 11” and oos trout was 13”. Other subtle takes were missed or on then off, the feeding window was around 1pm. An Otter working the pool above me plus a few large dark olives coming off put a smile on my face.
