Eight lovely grayling to 1.5lb all on dry fly. Klinkhamer and olive emerger size 16. Loads of pale wateries hatching off but no interest in my versions of this fly. Later in the day plenty of needle fly coming off but little interest.
A much more intersting beat than Abernant which I fished the day before in high coloured water. Abernant gave similar results in catch numbers with one very nice grayling of 1.75lb but the beat lacked the variety and interest of Doldowlod. No fish killed. Incidentally you are lucky to have such charming ladies in the office, great service and advice.

Caught 2 grayling about 12 ins and 1 trout same size. Trout on gold head hares ear, grayling on weighted shrimp - on advice from Mr. Proctor....
River only just beginning to clear and running fast, so quite pleased with the return. All fish returned. Also thanks for the crucial advice from Mr P.

Weather changeable from bright sunshine to showers, lots
of surface weed and debris being washed down and snagging my line, 4 decent chub on hali pellets from the far bank opp. the island but no Barbel, moved upstream and fished
from one of the croys had a good size barbel on which promptly broke my 10lb line! Decided to call it a day. Quite a bit of traffic noise from the B4224 but a nice place to fish never the less. Wye & Usk staff always helpful when booking.

Lovely early autumn day. River carrying a bit of colour but nice to see some flow at last. 1 wbt 12 inches on 14ptn, fish taken - proof to family that I do occasionally catch something.

4 barbel - 5lb, 2 x 6½lb & 7½lb, 1 x small chub. Something very big lurking in one of the pools... could have been salmon or pike.

4 Trout between us 10-12"

4 barbel 5 - 7lbs 9oz and 1 small chub all caught on pellets, between two rods. Very nice fishery, bank access very good, vehicle access easy when dry. Fished all day for nothing until 4.30 and then it got quite exciting. Big fish moving, probably pike but could have been salmon. Enjoyed our day very much. Excellent service from the office staff, thankyou very much.

5 Barbel to 7lbs, 1 Chub of 3lbs, water had a slight tinge to it, weather warm.

Species caught:

5 x brown trout (10-11 inch)
3 x grayling (10-12 inch)
several small trout

Fly: Czech Nymph

Had a lovely day at Luggsmouth....we had about 7 barbel (up to about 6lb) between us and a couple of chub....river low and clear, could do with a fall of rain! Sadly had to end the session early, but will definately return.
