3 Day Fishing Break for March

The Trout season begins on the 3rd March on the Usk and there are eager fishermen out there who are keen to brave the Spring weather and have a go for an early season Brownie. The Usk is known for its hatches of March Browns & Large Dark Olives early in the season; fast and furious, too long for lunch and you will miss it. It is around midday to 2 o’clock that these hatches suddenly erupt.

We have put together a couple of flexible 3-day fishing breaks for March so you can get some early season fly fishing with the comfort of Gliffaes to come back to after a chilly day on the river. Whether you wish to come on your own or with a partner or if two of you would like to fish we have a package for most options.

More tips for early season fishing on the Usk from guide, Frank Williams.

Three beats of single bank water just a short walk from the hotel and a further stretch of double bank about 15 minutes away.
