A somewhat cold day for the time of year which kept the trout down low. Deep nymphs took all of the fish and another 5 were missed or threw the hook. All the fish were found in the deeper pools. A good hatch of olives along with a few iron blues and larger upwings started up with the midday heat.

One missed take on a dry fly on the rare occasion that a rising fish was seen.

Lovely afternoon in the wildest of Welsh hills with sun and cloud and no rain. Little wind. The first time I've been here but the water level seemed perfect. Very little fly life about, and a minimal number of fish rising. However fish were taking throughout the session, all dry fly on a variety of Parachute Adams. A further trout lost when I caught the line in an overhanging branch. One trout taken. A number of very likely looking runs and pools where it was impossible to fish because of timber in the water.

Managed to drag my 15 year old off his Xbox for the day and made the 400 mile round trip to one of my favorite small streams. Water running pretty low and not much fly life or those familiar splashy rises. We did manage to catch 6 wbt, 3 each, all on dries and all around 6 inches. Maybe not as intense as Call of Duty but a precious father - son day!

A grey and calm day with clear water. A little fly life from time to time, but generally very quiet. A couple of missed takes on the Adams was all that disturbed the peace.

Did not fish.

Overcast conditions throughout the day with a few sunny spells. Fished the Duo all day and took fish on both flies.
February reds and small up wings hatched intermittently all day although few fish rose to them.

13 trout caught but as many missed!

First time on this beat. Bright sunshine and great to be out in this beautiful area. Fished the lower half of the beat with a small goldhead ptn and partridge and hares ear spider on the dropper but to no avail. Decided the ptn not getting down quickly enough so put on a heavier grhe nymph which produced two small trout - 9” and 6”. About 11.30 a hatch of march browns started but only saw one rise from a small fish. Would have tried an emerger if I had not left them in the car.

Very satisfying end to the season. It was an overcast day and the water was low and clear. The Edw is one of my favourite streams and a joy to fish. Lots of creeping about needed to fool these little skittish trout. I spent the time prospecting with small klinkhammers and parachutes and managed 17 fish between 6" and 9" - great sport on light tackle. Thank you WUF.

A great day and the perfect end to the trout season for me. Quite cool in the morning in the shade, but it warmed up and became brighter. A good flow of crystal clear water, the level was low, but fishable. A lovely small stream beat, not as tight as some (which was nice), a really good variety. All fish caught on nymph below a Klinkhammer. Most fish were small, 6-10", with one larger. All returned.
