Had a quick scamper up here in the evening after checking in at the campsite & thought to start from the footbridge and go upstream. Been a good while since my last visit & now find sadly its mostly a long dark very socked in tunnel mostly up there, severely overshaded and very difficult to progress more than a few yards once in the water. Where you could actually see the water it looked lovely , pushing through nicely .
No mayfly on the go at all and nothing else either for that matter.
Walked a fair way up and same story sadly so called it quits and went and grabbed a cold beer!

Day was bright with some broken cloud. First time at this beat, some lovely water here. Couldn't get the dries to stick, so all caught on nymphs.

Odd weather this morning when I parked up at half eleven by the bridge ..... a cold breeze and only reading 12 degrees on my trucks dash !!!
The first few pools were very very quiet ..... in fact deadly !!! It did perk up , but most strange, and in fact very little insect life till later in the afternoon ....I should of perhaps tried later on !! I noticed a car parked at the Cregrina beat .....
Eventually started getting hits to my dry fly offerings.....ahhhhhhhh at last !! A couple of nice chunky fish in a tally of eight today ..... another two didn't make it, and ever so kindly released themselves !!!! Sizes between eight snd eleven inches ..... Great takes to my dry fly offerings in fairness ......
The herd of cows are now loose in the field, with a bull !!! Keep your wits about you folks .... they cross the river where that old maroon swing gate is .... so have free access to both sides !!!! Stay vigilant!!!!!!
Not a bad few hours, possibly an otter lower down at the start of the beat ...... as I say it did pick up and had some great sport at the top, with that pocket water before the waterfalls ..... fantastic stuff!!!
Right, onwards and upwards, going to try a little trib High up on the Wye catchment, see if there's any brownies in there...... then there's a cool bottle of Katy cider waiting for me when I get home !!! Lush !!
