Feedback & Reports

1 Brown Trout approx 2/3 lb - returned. Caught on a dry Gold Ribbed Hares Ear. Lovely beat, will definitely fish again, but could be improved by clearer access to river.

Lovely beat, I fished it from end to end from both banks where possible. The river is very low, water 10`C and very clear -even a Hover/Intermediate was too much with lightweight flies snagging constantly on many pools, so I think badly in need of water. No sign of salmon over two days, interesting wildlife, a huge hatch which the chub loved, and a Kingfisher by the corner tree pool. The only disturbing of the tranquility were the canoes. Showers starting as I left at lunchtime. Many thanks to WUF-highly efficient.

7 trout up to 1lb in weight on spiders and dries in 3 hours.
Tremendous hatch of Grannom.

Water very low and clear. Fish rising at rock so fished dry and landed 4 to 1lb. Lost one in excess of 1 and half pounds (broke on 2.2lb). Massive hatch of grannom and a few dark olives. No salmon showing at all to date. John fished at the top run hooking 2 to 1lb. I fished until 5 with no further fish. All returned.

Annual April trip this time with 15 yr old daughter who is very keen on this fine sport. River very low. Sunny morning yielded 6 brown trout all to dry fly (Adams 14 and 16). First fish, a fine 12" specimen, taken on about 7th cast of the morning directly in front of the lodge. Lost two others from same pool. 5 others 6-10" later on in the space of 20 mins during a brief hatch LWO/March Browns, right place right time! Afternoon very quiet so switched to PTN and had one trout 8" and one excellent fighting grayling 12".
Daughter tucked in on wet March Brown with two beatifully marked trout to 8", proud Dad and thrilled daughter. Happy Days. Will return with my mates in two weeks. Thankyou WUF for a slick booking service, information and advice. We camped at Trericket Mill for two nights and climbed Pen-y-Fan on Tuesday before returning home tired but very happy.

No fish caught.

First look at this beat lovey water and with the river so low you could see every rock! I fished down through but did not connect with anything but a couple of good trout and a small pike. RP was after the trout and managed to rise many fish without hooking one! Came back for another look on Wednesday and fished most of the morning before it started to snow very heavily, and I could no longer feel my hands!

Nil return. had a pull. a few fish showing. Very cold NE wind and bright sunshine.

Although being new to river fishing, I had one of the most beautiful afternoons fishing I think I've ever had. Sunny, dry with a steady hatch of grannom that had fish rising everywhere. Tried a dry with no joy but then had 3 browns from a perfect 5"ish to a larger but equally perfect 10"ish all taken on home tied size 14 red holo Diawl Bach. The best fish of the afternoon was also my first Grayling, and of a decent pound plus size taken on a small size 14 black unweighted pheasant tail style nymph. All flies were barbless and all fish returned without leaving the water.

5 WBT caught and released to 1lb, lovely beat only covered half the water, Grannom hatches from 11am till 2pm, then quieter. Two fish took a Grey Wulf, a very enjoyable day, fished from 10 till 4pm thank you for the recommendation.
