Tough day, very low water levels, the slower sections are very slow and covered in clumps of bind weed. Winkled one out though.

Wow, she was hard going today!!! An old favourite and pretty local to me .... Temperature dipped stream, reading 13 degrees ... Twas only really the pools that I targeted with tiny dries....
Tough fishing ... in the Elan outflow for a couple of days this week that'll be good, usually some decent fish futher down its short journey before it meets the Wye. Dont forget the Claerwen river is fun too folks... not for the faint hearted, its mountain goat stuff, but bursting with small pretty brownies.... great fun too !!!
Anyway, dry fly tactics as always... and to be honest its all you can use, average depth must be eight inches, if that ... cold though, do thats a bonus !!!

Managed five, all from pool heads .. lovely savage takes too ..... Another two were on and off, a very brief contact..

I fished from eleven till half two ...A chilled but I suppose frustrating session... The Edw seems gloomy and lifeless when she's so low ... oh well, Afon Elan, Claerwen and mountain llyns later this week ....ohhhhhhh and rain next week.... Hallelujah!!!!!!

Did not have a bite, the river is too low and clear. I walked the whole beat, only 1 swim was semi fishable.

Fished between Widdy Bank and Cronkley bridge, had 7 brownies up to 10" and lost a fair few on nymphs and drys. Quite a few fish rising in the flats despite a chilly downstream wind. Very enjoyable the scenery is worth the ticket price alone.

i thought the chub were trout - they were rising on the surface - caught them on a dry fly.
