Feedback & Reports

First cast provided a beautifully conditioned barbel of 8lb 15oz, everything looked set for an excellent day's fishing..!
However 9 hours later and various swims explored no further action was forth coming.
River is still very low and clear, hopefully recent rain within the region will spark things back to life.

Second very slow day of block booking. 1 barbel to only bite of the day for one angler. Number of chublings to other angler while float fishing.

One barbel from first cast of the day, neither of us had another bite. River low and clear

River very low & clear. Caught lots of chublets on the float and mate had 2 barbel from beach area.
Lovely fishery but not so picturesque as it used to be, as it seems the gardens opposite have closed and become overgrown.

A great venue but very low clear water and bright sunshine did not make the fishing easy to say the least...!! On a positive note plenty of good Dace were caught on the float which saved the day from a fishing perspective and formations of Geese flying south in the evening sun was an enjoyable sight....Thanks to the WUF and fishery owners for making this cracking spot available to fish and will return again soon with the rain hopefully....!!

Steady day, hard to get the fish out onto areas they would normally be on this beat. Managed to tempt some eventually. Fantastic venue to be fishing as always.
After a week on the Wye we'd like to say thankyou to the landowners, fishery owners and the Wye and Usk Foundation for making it possible for us to fish this glorious river.

Great stretch of the Wye, several relatively easily accessible swims.
Day extremely hot and humid, very slow fishing. Did manage two Chub 2.5 & 4lb in the morning, close to hanging willows both took pellet.
Lost one huge Barbel in streamer weed, after a very determined fight, ????
