2 decent brown trout 14”, just under 1lb each. Caught in the afternoon between showers on a bibio over flooded grass a metre off waters edge, at the far end furthest from dam. Water level very high and quite breezy.

A much wetter day today. Very few fish rising. No offers at all. The rain made us beat a hasty retreat in the afternoon. lovely place. We'll be back.

Rain stopped playing. Try again tomorrow.

3 above the bridge for J.D. and 1 below for me. Rain showers but warm. Not many bugs about. Fish rises were intermittent.
Fished from 2 pm to 6pm, hoping for an evening rise.

river brown and rising, clarity of about 2 ft so still a chance nothing caught

surprised to see the river so brown, still fishable nothing seen or caught though

The place is not the best on the looking side, banks full of rubs carried over by the previous spates and death sheep anging , smell as well unpleasant, but is holding some really good size trouts spooky and spoiled.
Catch two around fifteen sixteen inches on a 20 hook size emergers

River in perfect condition - 8" on the Brecon gauge. Considered cancelling my trip as the weather in Cardiff was appalling and the forecast for the Beacons was little better. Could not see the Storey Arms, let alone Pen y Fan, on the drive up. The Usk valley seemed to be protected from the weather; an occasional squall but otherwise OK. A few olives and the occasional mayfly coming off all day with some fish rising on both the flats and in Llanobery Pool. A number of takes on a dry olive CDC but only one fish to the net.
