River stained with rain water but fishable could just about see boots from knee depth. Mostly caught on a flashback PTN biggest were 14". Quite a few rising fish at the tail of the pools but hard to tempt! Lovely water.

First time at Old Clytha, stunning place. River was flowing at a fair rate, but a cold, strong wind steadily built through the day. Plenty of fly life and a rise started, but the wind stopped it later.

One Brown Trout to a single nymph, perhaps a few more next time.

Fished Dry fly and caught 2 fish. river was pleasant to fish. Tricky beat to access, down the steep overgrown steps, this should get easier when the ground dries out. Also difficult to wade across to fish from the left bank, probably easier in lower water. plenty of rising fish in the glide at the bottom of the beat.

River looked an absolute picture at ten when I parked up by the Bridge......Shes sat at a really nice , Dry fly height now , with just that slight Edw tinge to it!! Seems like the kingfisher was busy as I walked down , that lively shrill noise they make..... You know you're by a wild river when you hear that .....and that fast glimpse of electric colour, just fabulous !!!
Fishing was sublime .... only went up to the bridge, great sport on just a single well ginked dry ....My favourites for here getting hammered .... I think ten or eleven made it to the net, with a good few more, on and off today as well .... ahhhhhh such is life .... Nothing huge today,biggest ten inches, smallest six maybe.... but they all nailed my dry ....such good fun !!!
This beats getting a bit wild WUF ..... could do with a proper bit of TLC ....I forgot my secateurs today, but next time I'll do a bit of pruning, particularly the lower beat up to the bridge needs some attention !!!
Again, like the Duhonw, fish are in the faster water and heads of all the tiny pools , fab fun..... my Six foot one weight has had a fabulous few days to be honest she's loved the whole adventure !!!!
Got out at half one by the bridge ...... as I'm writing this at three, we are having a good down pour here in Rhayader ...... good for all the tubs and pots in the garden .... Happy days !!!
Off out guiding tomorrow in the Elan Valley, for a couple of days, then maybe another wild stream over the weekend, lifes good ......
