A slow start to the morning but action increased as the day warmed, which was very welcome after a very sparse session on The Irfon the previous day. Maybe 3 or 4 at 4”, then the rest up to a single 10” which was the last catch of the day on one of Hergest’s several deep pools. All fish to dry on a short 3WT. On the drive out I noted some heavy trimming at the start of the Aberedw beat and wonder if the whole beat has been cleared? From what I remember last year, it was due.

Cracking day. Klinkhammer and small Adams worked their magic

6 small wbt to gold head nymph.Hooked and missed as many. Wading a challenge -rocky and slippery underfoot and I eventually took a tumble. Very few fish rising but a great day on a beautiful beat.

Hard days fishing to be honest only caught one on a duo with hairs ear nymph on and missed about 3 fish also caught a nice sized minnow on the dropper

A somewhat cold day for the time of year which kept the trout down low. Deep nymphs took all of the fish and another 5 were missed or threw the hook. All the fish were found in the deeper pools. A good hatch of olives along with a few iron blues and larger upwings started up with the midday heat.

One missed take on a dry fly on the rare occasion that a rising fish was seen.

Lovely afternoon in the wildest of Welsh hills with sun and cloud and no rain. Little wind. The first time I've been here but the water level seemed perfect. Very little fly life about, and a minimal number of fish rising. However fish were taking throughout the session, all dry fly on a variety of Parachute Adams. A further trout lost when I caught the line in an overhanging branch. One trout taken. A number of very likely looking runs and pools where it was impossible to fish because of timber in the water.

Managed to drag my 15 year old off his Xbox for the day and made the 400 mile round trip to one of my favorite small streams. Water running pretty low and not much fly life or those familiar splashy rises. We did manage to catch 6 wbt, 3 each, all on dries and all around 6 inches. Maybe not as intense as Call of Duty but a precious father - son day!

A grey and calm day with clear water. A little fly life from time to time, but generally very quiet. A couple of missed takes on the Adams was all that disturbed the peace.

Did not fish.
