Thought I'd give the middle section of the lovely Llynfi Dulas a bash for a couple of hours this afternoon...... got there two ish ...the view is fabulous from the top ...a nice bimble down to the River , running at a nice height but always slightly muddy in colour here .... some lifting of stones revealed loads of caddis and a stone loach!! ......wowser haven't seen one of those in years !!! ... there were bullheads under some large flat stones too... and plenty of invertebrates... in fact amass with them .... Great stuff .
Mayfly on the go from two and large Brook duns ... also olives but trout weren't that keen on rising today.. think I saw three rises over two odd hours !! Managed five to Para dries they really hammer the fly here when they want it ...thought it would have been a bit more lively here but alas pretty quite considering the mass of insect life ... oh well thats fishing for you !!! Still a super couple of hours on x secretive little stream .... getting very overgrown here in fairness..... Real jungle warfare tactics , the six foot, two weight was plenty !! Back home and a bottle of cold Amber nectar me finks !! Another little adventure ..... these wild streams are fab !! Get out there folks, they're at their best now !!! Happy days !!!

No salmon caught or seen. 1 small trout.

Tough fishing due to limited river entry points. Caught a decent brown trout about 1.5lbs. Pod of fish rising in the last hour - infuriating!

what a disappointment after yesterday. Got to the beat and things looked good, well looks can be deceiving , only shad caught and nothing seen, this beat is causing us some problems as we don't understand why there are no fish here

fished the bridge pool both fly and spinner, had shad but nothing else, up to Hellrug or the spout fished the main pool and then down to the tail and bang into a small fish 4 to 5 pounds, three seconds later it was off, so more disappointment oh well thats fishing. Up to what was my favourite pool the Willow, and what a surprise the whole pool has changed and shifted , not sure about it now.

Thousands of May flies on the water but not a trout in site. I covered the full stretch and saw one fish rise the entire evening

As with earlier reports from April, Hergest seems trickier at the moment than it traditionally is. Several fish rising short to gnats, Adams, and the one that came to hand was on a jig nymph under Hergest falls. Water conditions were ideal height, colder than usual for May and fly life was present but less that expected, gnats being present and LDO spinners which never touched down enough to generate a rise.

Sunny day, but wind still in the north. Saw hardly any rises in a morning session, but caught three tiddlers on nymphs. By the evening a lot more fish in evidence, but they weren't taking what I offered them, either nymphs or dry. Caught one more.
