Not even a single bite. The second time my grandson has come with me but he is not put off and determined to catch rainbow trout next time. Lol

A nice day with water levels just right with the clarity good . Started up at the rocks but nothing doing . Bumped into another feller who informed me he had one and showed me a nice pic of a bar of silver he had earlier . Well done on him .

Couple of trout though .

I fished the South end and had an early fish to a red cruncher. Lovely brownie just under a lb. Sadly that was my only fish although I had a take late on,on a buzzer. I fished nymphs and buzzer all day packed up about 1715. Lovely day and some much welcome advice from friendly local anglers helped. Beautiful venue. Definitely be back.

Great hatch but absolutely no trout seen all day!!

A bit of apathy set in this morning after checking the Llanstephan gauge, still bit high at 2’5”, but as the river seems to be clearing more quickly now after successive spates, I stirred myself , got in the car, and was fishing shortly after 10.00. I had only been fishing 20 minutes or so when the line went solid and I knew I was into a decent sized springer.
The hen fish, a shade over 36”, and with a noticeable deformity, ( or old injury), on the gill cover, eventually made the net and stayed only briefly to unhook and photo before swimming off strongly after a short rest.
Caught on a small Pearly Tosh tube fished on T14.
As a small bonus, a grayling, pushing 2 1/2 lb took the same fly at the bottom of the beat later on. Where was he when I was trying to catch him in January and February?

Washed off.

Amazing first trip to the Dee, catching one brown and one grayling. Both caught on a small pheasant tail nymph. Caught on the top stretch from river accessed at parking point C. Was an overcast day, rainy at times and the river was running pretty strong.
