5 barbel on pellet. Short session as on other beats. All fish had bad hook damage and one a big size 8 hook.

River in better state. 2 barbel, 6 chub and lost a cracking barbel.

We fished this beat for the first two days of the coarse season in dire conditions. River very high and rising. We drew a blank on the first day even after trying various swims. The second day the river was even higher but we managed to winkle out 4 barbel and two chub.

1 x Chub - 4lb on breadflake. Some damage by Pike suspected.

Our first visit to this beat. Many of the swims downstream from the weir look ideal for barbel, but we failed to catch any in what seemed ideal conditions. After fishing a number of swims, three good chub between us late on of around 4lb apiece saved a blank.

Had an enjoyable days fishing on my 1st visit to this stretch. After a long and very muddy walk to the fishery I worked my way upstream from the bottom of the stretch. Spending the day roving I managed just a solitary jack pike. Looked good so may return in the future.
NB; Take extra care when wet as I found the banks to be quite dangerous due to being steep and very muddy.

Chub (3) 1@4lbs, 1 @ 3 lbs 1 @ 2lbs all estimated - must buy a set of scales!!! Bread flake worked today. Should have caught at least 6 more - definately now very slow! But was my first time fishing the Wye (poor excuse). Excellent venue, excellent online booking service. Thanks WUF, will definitely be back for more.

First time on this beat - well impressed by the swims, lots of them, good access (take a rope with you for those high and slippy banks, tying off posts at top of most pegs). Really good mixture of water, fast, steady and slow glides. Slow and deep on the lower section. Spent the day deadbaiting for pike but alas they were not playing today. Tried a bit of lure fishing as well. As well, next time.... Thanks all at w&uf

Not a single bite all day, but a nice location, did see some nice chub taking floating bread. It's one hell of a walk to the bottom of the beat, I think this needs to be highlighted to potential anglers before booking.

WUF note - The length of walk to the limits of the beat are equal to the length of the beat - this applies to all fisheries.

River very low and clear which provided a convenient excuse for our complete lack of any fish today.
