Conditions were bright with hardly any wind,but there was a ripple on the water. Never caught or saw any movement or any fish rising all day although there was fly on the water.It's difficult to judge what ideal conditions would be on this water.

Another lovely day on the Wye. Very little activity on top so went with team of spiders and a gold head GRHE on point, steady succession of modest size trout and grayling in the faster water at the bottom of the beat. After lunch moved up to top of the beat and worked my way through the fast water yielding only two trout. From 5pm to 6pm had a purple patch in the fast water at the bottom of the beat, all 5-9" trout really lively with lots of aerobatics. Great way to finish.

15 Trout, 5 Grayling

Only fished from 12-4 and was a very hot sunny day so not ideal timings. Fish came early on then nothing. Not much rising. Nice day by the river though.

Managed to drag my 15 year old off his Xbox for the day and made the 400 mile round trip to one of my favorite small streams. Water running pretty low and not much fly life or those familiar splashy rises. We did manage to catch 6 wbt, 3 each, all on dries and all around 6 inches. Maybe not as intense as Call of Duty but a precious father - son day!

Very hot day - major hatches of Sedge flies etc happening all over. Clear water. Unfortunately not even a pull - couldn't tempt them with anything in my (limited) travel box of flies with either intermediate or floating line. Didn't try lures though. Fish were moving though, but sporadically. Blanked :(

Very low and clear, bright sunshine. 2 fish on a nymph, 1 on a dry in the morning. No hatches, saw just a few small olives coming off and a few splashy rises. From lunchtime swimming and bbqing at the bottom 3 pools meant fishing was curtailed.

Very low and clear, bright sunshine. 1 fish on a nymph in the fast water, and lost one at the top of the beat. No hatches, saw just a few small olives coming off and a few splashy rises. Several groups of people and dogs splashing in the river in the top half of the beat during the afternoon reduced the number of fishable pools on the beat.
