9 Barbel to 9lbs. Fished opp Weir Garden. Caught on pellets and mini boilies. Fished 1pm to 7pm. Fantastic fishing, weather and scenery!

17 Barbel 7 Chub on pellet. Main of the catch from the top end of the weir garden. Lost a lot of tackle.

Nothing caught.

9 barbel 4lb to 7lb 8oz & 4 chub all caught on pellet.

The river conditions looked perfect but we Struggled to find fish with only 3 barbel caught between 6lb to 7lb 4oz, all were caught on pellet. This stretch of the Wye is in a nice setting but is snaggy & as for the walk we would say it is 1/2 mile to the river bank then another 1/2 mile to any descent barbel swims so travel light!!!
PS - Hopefully the WUF can do something better for the access to this nice stretch of water?

Had a lovely day on this stretch of the river. Started at the top albeit a little late. After missing quite a few bites due to not having a great deal of experience on rivers and the last time I was on any river was well over a year ago, I opted for touch ledgering which resulted in two nice Chub around the 3 pound mark. A long spell of not catching anything (and a little nap as the weather was very nice) I forced myself to move which I should have done hours before. This resulted in much more action and soon I found myself with a beauty of a Barbel of around 7 Pound. Spurred on by this I tried to find more Barbel but in vain. Moving down stream did the trick again tho and soon I reeled in 3 more decent Chub with the biggest being just under 6 plb. For me are record so chuffed to bits. All fish were caught on meat. Had to go home before dark for other obligations and although I'm sure many out there would say that would be meager result, for me a joy of a day.
Thanks WUF I will most certainly be back on this stretch. On to Wye Bank tomorrow for some more action I hope.

River level was dropping making it hard to get into a swim but managed to fish 4 swims. Total for the day 6 barbel and 2 chub. We will be back.

Indeed a good walk but once on the river access to swims is easy. River looked a few inches up but quite clear. I tried several pegs opposite the gardens but the fishing was quite slow catching 3 barbel and 3 chub between 1pm and 9pm. It seemed quite a lot of hard work for this return but I hope to give it another go.

18 barbel to approx 8.5 lbs and 1 chub on pellet baits

Caught 13 barbel, all on pellets.
Long walk from car park.
