Feedback & Reports

Fished on an evening ticket to avoid the high heat of the day and had a really lovely few hours.
I thought this was a fantastic beat ! I only got up to the back of the farm way but from the downstream limit up to the farm it was all really very fishy looking and highly fishable , casting from shallow water generally in to to deeper but not bottomless looking deep gutters!
Parking , access , wading , moving around upriver and on land (no padlocks on gates and newly installed stile/piping on barbed wire) was good .
A beautiful venue , the hayfields not yet cut and surprisingly very peaceful even with the A40 not far away.
Nothing happening with any fly , prospected with a cdc sedge and got some interest. If like me though you much like fishing an attractor dry in the pockets/slicks/fast runs you'll like this one I'm sure.
A good number of fish cruising and sipping on no see ums in the glassy tail water of quarry pool late on. I told myself to keep walking but you know how it goes!! It was fun trying, a fab pool for sure.
O.29m on the Trallong gauge, looked perfect.
Very much looking forward to more of this !

A brutally hot day.
We had intended to fish until dark. But with only 1 or 2 swims providing any shade. We called it a day at 3.
Surprisingly with the conditions we had a great day.

Fished the Cothi. Lovely beat. Baking hot day , fished mid morning, and returned about 8pm. Fished dry fly only, just a few fish rising and elk hair caddis worked well in the evening .

NOT A BITE ON WORM. FLOAT AND BOTTOM FISHING. 1 TAKE ON SPINNER. SURPRISED HOW HIGH THE WATER WAS. LIMITING FISHING AREAS TO GO.

Weather - warm sunny
Water - Clear but shallow.
Duration - 13:00 to 17:00
Location - 200 yds downstream of Green Bridge (South Bank)
Float fished worm trotting. Depth circa 3-4 feet. About 8 missed possible bites. One confirmed catch circa 8” long and roughly 8-10oz. My first ever Tees Trout and my first trout for 50+ years.

Hardly any swims usable. Does the Wye and Usk ever check that the fishery owners do any work to make swims usable. At £25 a time it’s a disgrace.
