Rock hard weekend camping/fishing at Teifi Pools after phenomenal heatwave. 4 fish over 3 days for 4 of us. Still, worse places to hang out. Kites, kestrel, meadow pipit, stonechat, wheatear, sand pipers & skylarks provided the soundtrack. #flyfishing #wales #trout #teifipools
Walking the Saint’s Way with Mrs O. Cornwall isn’t over blessed with an abundance of trout rivers, but some of the tiny streams we’ve crossed are stuffed with them. #cornwall #saintsway #flyfishing
Nice day guiding WTT auction winner on my local. He was new to small stream fishing and did really well to land half a dozen fish… a kingfisher and water vole showed up to add to the proceedings.
Laughable. This man has literally no idea what he’s talking about. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Always had a soft spot for an unfussy vintage #divewatch since staying in a diving centre on holiday as a kid. Still can’t choose between #citizen and #seiko though…
Took my mate Luke up to mid Wales today. Despite it being the hottest day of the year, the water was still cool and he found a fish willing to rise to his dry… #flyfishing
A few days up north with my long time fishing compadre Pete. Cold downstream wind made fishing hard but we found a few. Rekindle my love for camping on fishing trips despite the frosts…
Quickie up on the local today. River in peak condition with legion of medium olives and a few mayfly starting to pop. Half a dozen juniors to 10” all on a cdc emerger save one that took a mayfly pattern.
20 minutes of heaven on one of my favourite pools. 150m up from the top of the tide and a Cornish saltwater creek and the only fishable spot on this overgrown stream. The trout are like small gemstones but fight like pounders on my 2wt glass McCarthy. #flyfishing
Last minute pivot to the Taw to spend a perfect afternoon with Pete casting to spring risers and finishing off birthday cake. All the while Monty, even at 70 (in human years), was spring loaded for the action. We ended up with 2 each, Pete landing the daddy of the bunch obvs.#flyfishing
Tough weekend on the Usk and up in the Cambrians with Tony. 3 fish between us and only one on a dry. Still an enjoyable getaway peaking with a pint by the wood burning stove in the Towy Bridge Inn. #flyfishing #wales
First trip of two planned to Dinas on the Usk. Stiff downstream wind but otherwise nice conditions. Plenty of March browns around lunchtime but not many looking up. @danosmond.bsky.social caught a handful on nymphs. I stuck with a dry and caught nowt.
First trip of the season. Breconshire Fishery on the Usk, just below Brecon. Steady hatch of LDOs & MBs between 1-2pm. One fish each on dries. Headed home at 3:30pm when the temp dropped.
Great turn out for Pete’s T&S do at Farlows. Plenty of fly fishing royalty lending their support. #flyfishing #troutandsalmonmagazine @farlows.bsky.social
Great day afloat with @danosmond.bsky.social on Wimbleball. Always a pleasure to hang out with Dan and we had plenty of action on a very low lake with some top quality trout to take home to be cold smoked.
Final foray of the season to Ystradfellte with Ben J. Wets won out but hooked and lost one on a daddy.
Last trip to Wales of the season. The 6 months ahead seems to stretch out eternally.
Final trip of the season (probably), into the Welsh desert looking for leopards…
Fantastic day up in Mid Wales. Pete found the fish I’d dropped back in April, sat in the same spot opposite the white triangular rock. Quite a moment to see it inhale Pete’s sedgehog. I got the privilege of netting duties.
Schoolhouse & Castle. Action packed morning dour after lunch. Farmer playing bagpipe music in his tractor cab.
