Lovely river, although is hard work venturing upstream.
Access to the river was extremely difficult and didn’t match the directions from the parking. Found myself sliding down a steep hill to try and get access. Way out from the bridge about halfway up the beat was easy though.
Definitely a few fish around, but only managed one to the net on a elk hair caddis.

The epitome of a wild stream. Yet more trees are down and across the river than ever before, several of the best pools are now obscured by trees. A good physical workout.

Small, feisty fish. Very challenging fishing! Next time I will try using my tenkara outfit for these easily-spooked, fast-as -lightning takers!

The river banks of the stream/gorge had A LOT of fallen trees down/across them. I consider myself pretty good at a river bank scrabble, but the path became impassible before we could even reach the river from the parking spot. I did manage to find river access via the footpath at the Crickadarn side, but even from there the river was pretty impassible within a few hundred yards both up and down stream. I should think it's a beautiful and exciting stream to fish, but currently the access was just too challenging.

Spent a couple hours fishing the beat whilst keeping to all isolation rules. Managed to bring 3 trout to the net and also hooked into what felt like 2 really good ones but sadly lost them both (they certainly are frisky in here!)

River low and clear, very sparse hatch, plenty of trees in the channel making life interesting. Occasional fish keeps you moving upstream in search of more........ just move carefully!!!! The fish spook and the rocks are slippery!

Just two fish caught (on small klinkhammers), but such a good day. A beautiful river, to which I will return!

Suprisingly big trout in here

A tough day on a beautiful beat. 2 of us leapfrogged our way up the valley fishing at very close querters in very clear water. As usual the Clettwr was extremely challenging throughout the bottom half, but it did give up some fish. Most fish taken on nymphs with a variety of improvised casting techniques used.
