12" brown on Coch Y Bonddu wet fly.

Sunny day with some strong gusts of wind blowing in the dam wall direction. Not much surface activity in the morning. First fish caught from dam wall on floating line with 9ft leader attached to a gold headed hairs ear nymph. A strong pull and acrobatic fish in perfect condition around 10 oz. Worked around the road side of the reservoir from about half way along towards the forest end. Not much happening and lots of weed. Back to dam wall mid afternoon and lots of surface feeding close in. Second fish fell to a spider. Great venue and stunning scenery. Take care of slippery rocks and moss.

Cold and very windy, gave up after about 1 hour

Very bad day with weather, not much fishing done.

Refugees from an unfishable Ty-Newydd. We worked our way along the west bank for a couple of hours after arriving - not an easy task. Little evidence of fish but plenty of rain, quite heavy at times. After a late lunch watching exhausted soldiers "yomping" down the track to the car park we resumed fishing in the west corner of the dam where the occasional fish was showing. We each landed a dark bronze 12" trout and had other near misses fishing a variety of traditional wets.

No fish caught. Only saw 2 small fish rise in the margin grass.
