"After the driest spring recorded for more than 50 years, Wye and Usk anglers started June and the early summer period with a definite sense of trepidation". Oliver looks back on June... fishingpassport.co.uk/blog/p…

Cold early morning starts leading to hot afternoons and clear skies most of the time and still very low water. Still, the trout fishing on occassion was exceptional. Oliver looks back on May... fishingpassport.co.uk/blog/p…

Very few Welsh rivers have escaped human modification of some sort - weirs, channel straightening, bank reinforcement, culverts etc.
Our November Welsh "River of the Month," the beautiful Afon Aeron is no different.
Even the Germans got involved.

A good news story for the #riverusk
Credit where credit is due….
@NatResWales has successfully pushed through changes to abstraction licences for the Brecon & Monmouthshire Canal that will help the river Usk's salmon and overall ecology.
This was despite an appeal by @CanalRiverTrust against the decision.

A “wide ranging” review of the water industry in Wales and England has been announced by @WelshGovernment and @DefraGovUK, welcome news to anyone with an interest in rivers.
Of particular interest is that all water regulators will be part of the review.
