Brecon and Crickhowell, Wales · United Kingdom
River level: —
Loading measured readings…
Height relative to the local gauge datum; this is not the depth at your fishing spot.
Crickhowell is a level-only station downstream of the bridge and weir. Its height does not describe every Usk beat.
Flow unavailable from these gauges. River height is not converted into a flow estimate.
Water temperature unavailable in this panel. Air temperature below is the weather forecast.
Readings are provisional. A reading older than 6 hours is marked out of date. Level and flow alone do not establish whether a beat is fishable.

Wild brown trout in a Welsh freestone river, with riffles and slower dry-fly pools. Day-ticket beats let you plan independent fishing, but permission applies only to the stretch you book.
You came from a self-guided day-trip search. The calculator starts with one fishing day and no guide. Licence, permit, travel and any other costs still apply.
A comparable guided day price for two anglers is available on request. Ask the guide for a quote, including fishery tickets and permits. Ceri Thomas advertises full-day trips from £200, including lunch and equipment, but prices vary with the venue and number of anglers. A comparable two-angler Usk rate is not published. Permits and day tickets are extra.
These are the businesses this page's prices and fly lists come from. A listing isn't an endorsement, and nobody pays to be here.
