Slow day today, huge hatch of match browns, several fish taking them off the top but weren’t interested in any of my flies never mind good couple of days.

Lovely day on this beat. The owner rang me the evening before for a friendly chat and a few tips. Day started frosty and sunny, on the water by 11.15. Big hatch of March browns started about 12 noon, a couple of fish rising along the beat. Had a lovely brownie of about 14” drifting 2 spiders, carefully returned. Nothing else for the rest of the day.

Good trip to Chainbridge. Picked up an 8-10lb coloured cock salmon on a spinner in Chine pool.
Nice water height, just carrying a bit too much colour for the fly.
Also saw a good salmon near the bridge (15-20lb).

Nice day on a dropping river. Height 1.0 on the chainbridge gauge, water clear enough. Beat very fishable/ wadeable at this height. 2 Finnock around 1lb which surprised me as I did not know the Usk was well known for sea trout, lost another and additional takes. Fun fishing. Both had sea lice.

Total wash-off on this beat.
Although it was impossible to enter the water after such flooding, the info said the lower pools could be fished with spinners from the bank (oak pool and barn pool). There was absolutely no access to the water from this bank due to unmaintained trees and brambles, which is disappointing considering we travelled to fish this specifically thinking there was a contingency for high water.
I also called the land-owner for help but they did not answer or return a call or message.

Managed to fish for a couple of hours on arrival but had to abandon fishing due to a Wash Off. Weather was grim.
Very coloured water with a strong flow making wading difficult. 1 beautiful 12" Brownie caught on goldhead hares ear size 14
Many thanks to the beat owner for keeping us up to date with river conditions and weather; very much appreciated! It was a good opportunity to check out the beat and we will certainly be returning when conditions are better.
