Feedback & Reports

River was still slightly coloured and not too many fish rising. But they still come up for a dry! noticeable features this year are the welcome presence of many more small fish both trout and grayling and the absence of pesky piscivorous predators .. yet to see a cormorant or goosander on the river this year. All fish to usual parachute flies, no notable grayling today, best trout 16”. Others were one dace and one chub

Lovely beat - and a lot of water to explore. Only fished for a couple of hours but will be back.

went up for an evening session on the trout, first time on the Wye trouting. arrived 7is to a small rise, which grew to a good rise at about 9ish, only trouble was I could not touch a thing changing flies down to a size 18, but then noticed that the rise might not have been a trout rise, or better to say dace,shad,all mixed ,
Sadly to say nothing caught

a bit cooler than last night but still nice. Arrived about 7 walked up to the chapel run fish rising caught the first one no bother, 9inches, then I could not catch anything nor my fishing partner, went on to the wets, still nothing then hooked a Shad, strange indeed, we sat and watched , My mate said these are not trout they could be dace small chub or something , and sure enough next fish was a dace , two other trout followed but that was enough so it was a good rise just not trout

! dace and 1 shad

Colour dropped out of river and ok for a fly. Fished Dolmeudwy and Chapel catches between 1.00-7.00pm.
No salmon caught or seen.

nothing caught fish seen in gutters

Weather conditions and river flow perfect. Lots of insect life but few fish rising. Hence mostly nymphing techniques used though some success with dries late afternoon. A beautiful and very accessible beat. Many thanks again to Fishing Passport making such beats available to visitors.
