River in good condition with the guage at Fownhope at around 1'10". Water still carrying a slight green tinge but fairly clear. We fished the left bank concentrating on the lower half of the beat which has some fantastic fly pools. The first action came at around 11am when I had a good take in the Vanstone on a 3" Monkey, however a couple of headshakes the fish was off. It was fairly quiet after that until 4pm when I landed a well mended kelt of around 9lbs from the tail of Maddox on a snaelda tube fly. Shortly after this JB caught a fresh 10lb hen fish on a black flying c from the Corner Tree pool. Both fish safely returned. All in all a cold but great days fishing.

1ft 8'' and better visibility but with the typical greenish tinge. Gave it a good go using Devons and Flying C's. Very cold day so no surprise that it's nothing to declare!

Nothing caught.

Water looked great height and colour, enjoyed fishing around the cribs by the hut with spinner and minnows in the morning. A long run below the bridge near the bottom of the beat looked good but perhaps too high and fast to fish properly? Returned to fishing the deep water around upper cribs which looked really fishy and flyfishing from the cribs was ok lengthening line and moving to the next and a trout took a 2" copper tube and that was it all day, no other fish seen. Do take a landing net, its very deep most of right bank and it would be difficult to land a fish in many places without one. Enjoyable day out fishing a good beat. Thank you.

Very cold again. My waders were in the car overnight and still had ice on them when I struggled into them at 1.00pm. It was probably nature's way of telling me it was too damned cold.
It was. Nothing seen nor caught.

Covering the water for several hours, moved no fish and neither did the trickle of olives that started coming off around 2pm. It's been a very slow week...

Too cold for fishing.

We didn't catch anything however we were couple of very beginner anglers. It was windy and didn't have waders, so we could only fly fish a small section of Llanfechan. We saw a few 12 to 16 inch trout and grayling through the clear waters. Very scenic part of the world and would totally recommend trying your luck here.

Sadly the weather was so poor (snow and cold!) that I 'flaked out' I'm afraid, so no catches and not even a wet fly!
