Once you walk up past the overgrown first few yards, the river opens out and it is much easier to get a cast away. There are then a number of key pools separated by lengthy shallow riffles. These pools hold trout of over a pound although the average size for this beat (and for the Duhonw as a whole) is more like 6 to 8oz.

The last 500 yards above the road bridge runs through a steep sided gorge where the wading is much harder.

Ideally fished with 6½-7½ft, 2 to 3wt rod.
