Feedback & Reports

Strewth, a school boy error on my behalf, bowled up really an hour or two early today....Knowing its shaded in the Aberedw valley and takes a bit to crank up !!! That's exactly what happened today... Insects didn't really get on thd go till oneish, a mix of olives and Large brook duns. They're similar to the March Brown's, with a slimmer abdomen....
I've got to proof read my reports, as some of it looked gibberish on yesterday's efforts !!! Bloody predicted text ... about as useless as our government !!! Well, not that bad ...... lol !!
Anyway in other news, the fishing , again in the broken riffley stuff , nothing huge to my dry fly offerings....Lovely aggressive splashy takes though..
By half one a good few insects on parade ....Not as many as yesterday, but not a bad show. That nasty easterly wind ...yuk !! Seems it's here for a while. That and low rivers are making it very very challenging!! Twas only the two and a half hours here. I had a meeting with two clients who want a mountain llyn day, then a big reservoirs day in the Cwm Elan .... Here's hoping we get some rain and south westerly winds in April !!!
Five brownies,and two long range releases..... only little chaps but great fun. Amusing watching the dippers... great to see....
Some stone turning revealed lots of young bullheads, masses of baetis nymphs and stone clingers.
A fun session, on a favourite beat ... Things are perking uo folks, get out there, while there's water in them ... it'll be the Elan for me when they get really low ....So come on rain gods ...Three days of the wet stuff please !!!!!! On another stream soooooooooooon .......

Lovely sunny day but very windy. No fish caught today but a good day out

Hard day, river low and clear

Better day today only a few march browns around. Only a few fish rising today but still managed 2 on the spiders and 3 pulls too! Very hot for time of year.

Spent the morning on the opposite bank to the a470. We had one bite all morning. The wind was blowing strongly up the reservoir making it hard work. Swapped to a470 side around 2pm where the wind was much gentler. The fish started feeding around 3pm and we ended the session with 7 lovely rainbows between us. Method was worm popped off the bottom.

Brilliant warm sunshine with a cold upstream “gale”. Got a couple on a dun during a brief morning mb hatch then nothing.
A pleasant place to be but is it worth £43 per day?

Bright and warm conditions had me thinking the carp would be waking up and on the feed, well they were definitely awake however feeding was another matter altogether, tried multiple methods from surface to mid water and bottom baits to to no avail.
Lake looks like it could do with a downpour or three to flush it through.

Very low and Gin clear, good hatch of olives in the morning but they were super spooky. Both fish were large 16” and fought very well. Both came to cdc olive on a long leader, wind made getting drag free drifts almost impossible but fun trying.
