Conditions were bright and a cold wind. The odd fish rising, missed a few on dry fly. The fish that were all taken on nymphs fished upstream. They were all between 1/2 and 1lb.

The river was carrying a bit of colour. At one o'clock there was a brief hatch (LDO's, MB's?) and the fish responded. 3 fell to the dry fly. Other than that the others came intermittently to spiders. It was very pleasant to be out on a river again after the winter.

Bright and sunny with the river running clear. Both fished weighted nymphs for most of the day without a touch. Virtually no fly on the water. The odd fish rose on the glide at the bottom but couldn't interest them with anything. One of those days.

No fish caught but wonderful to be on Usk, albeit on low water with slim hope of fish running with heavy rain at back end.

Quite a nice beat but would benefit from a little work. Great for left handers as most of the casting is from the bank so not really possible to double spey or snake roll. I can fish left handed but its not as easy as fishing right handed and due to the overhanging trees on the far bank some accuracy is required. Would just about support two rods with decent water but in low water there would only be enough fishing for one rod. Had a coloured cock of about 6lb and five nice trout up to 1.5lb. Also had a few good pulls. A good day out.

River levels low which enabled access to parts of this beat that would otherwise be tricky to fish.
Relative novice and myself caught three WBT to 10 inches on pheasant tail nymph patterns.

A great day for fishing - the weather was light rain and drizzle the trout where rising. Not that I could catch them on a dry. I tried lots but my inexperience let me down.
Went on to fish duo method in the afternoon and caught 2 trout, 1 of about 9" and another lovely trout about 18" or around 1 1/2 lb, both on a ptn. Great spot, hope to come back next year.

This beat is not of the quality described in the passport and is fairly limited in extent. The 'walkway' is largely broken up and a large part of it has fallen in the river. The river bed is boulders not gravel making wading difficult, and the beat was poorly maintained with the steps from the car park overgrown with brambles.
Despite the recent rain the river is as summer level and there was no sign of fish.
