Flogged the water from 6am till about 4pm with no Salmon seen, hopefully the rain of the next few days will change that.
Got the dry fly rod out for the last hour and took 3 trout to half a pound on yellow Mayfly Duns.

Blank.

Conditions pretty much perfect, but no fish caught. Many thanks to Simon for his help, need all the help I can get!

Was hoping to find a bigger river but not to be. No fish seen.
But at present, it's all about learning and I did that, a lot more confident with a Salmon Rod after a long day. Walked both banks and fished Upper Llanstephen, so crawled to the car, my bad knee screaming at me!

The river was quite low and the weather was cloudy with occasional sun and slightly colder than it has been. Arrived around lunch time and almost immediately hooked a small fish on a weighted nymph which I lost at the net. There were small sporadic hatches and some surface activity. Managed to catch one trout on a dry which was very rewarding. A better angler than we would, I suspect have caught much more. The final massive tangle of the day prompted my exit at around 6pm. Great value. (I've recorded 2 trout but that latter one looked suspiciously silvery with very few spots. a quick Google back at home suggested a smolt?)

Saturday proved to be a good day despite the varying weather, not many hatches were showing but fish were rolling under the surface. Czech and standard over and across proved to be the best methods. The fish were holding deep. In Total 4 trout were taken with one being decent size 1.5lbs and a Grayling approx 9"taken on a gold bead head nymph. Lovely beat with very deep pools for holding salmon however known were seen.

Cold NE wind. No sun. Bleak. Little fly hatching. Very few rises. Nymphs failed to work,but got 3 trout on Bastard Adams, dry. 10"and 11". Stayed at Three Wells Hotel, Bach Howey. Very isolated and quiet.

Water Level extremely low so had to go out into the middle to try and fish, the wind was quite strong out in the middle which made the fishing almost impossible, I did not like this river its to large I think it would suit Salmon fishers really.

Lovely beat. Gorgeous spring day. Occasional slashy rises from small fish but no consistent rises or bigger fish seen. 4 small trout ranging 7-9 inches released.
