Feedback & Reports

River up slightly and coloured. Fishing my favourite peg, in top beat, found it hard going with weed being washed down river. Fished from 6am to midday no sign of barbel, 10 small Chubb caught on feeder with 12mm Red Robin pellet.

10 Chub

Fished an evening ticket, mainly in the top half of the beat, but not as far as the bridge pool. 1x 11" fish to JD. Otherwise both rods had long distance releases and an embarrassing amount of near misses. Fish intermittently rising from about 8pm to 9pm, Long slog back to the car with narrow headlands and head high bracken to fight through at the styles. All part of the fun . Wondering if one could park by the bridge?

Very quiet, cold conditions for July!

Falling river fish caught on pellet feeder.

Very early start. River a lovely colour. Height 0.56m, lower than expected (over 1.0m two days earlier) probably as a result of manic pumping by W.W. . Slow start then had a firm pull on a Reverend Mole and was initially disappointed to find it was a 4lb Sea Bass. What a great supper! Was then delighted to catch a fairly fresh 16lber on a yellow Irish Shrimp followed by a another of 12lber an hour later. Both hard fighting cock fish which swum away strongly.

A fantastic morning fishing on the Tywi with my son. Llandeilo water are starting to show life again like I used to know it when I was a kid.

We were lucky enough to catch several brown trout from tiny ones right up to a cracking two pounder. We also got in to a beautiful sewin again this was about two pounds. This looked like a freshly run fish, really shiny silver straight up from the sea.

It was a couple of days after we had had some rain and the river had dropped back to it normal 0.90 - 1.0 level maybe with still a slight light brown colour to the water. The weather was calm and mild around 15 degrees with a slight mist coming and going over the fields until around 7am where the morning sun began to brake through.

We were only using one rod my 10ft #5 with a 12ft leader. Teaching my son (10) to fly fish with such a beautiful rod is a great joy especially getting into a decent fish or two and him experiencing the joys of the fight and landing a fish on the fly. Almost all the trout we caught were on a size 15 nymph (we call it the Irfon nymph) and the sewin was caught on a size 12 Black Pennell.

River was high and fishing difficult. Spotted one very large trout in a side pool but he did not want to play

Nothing caught over run with dogs and walkers who have no respect for people fishing throwing balls and sicks in the water a long side you
