Same conditions as yesterday. 4 beautiful barbel 3 of which were 11lb+ 8 chub the biggest being 4lb and an eel. Great trip seemed with some of the nicest barbel so far. Fished on pellet and luncheon meat over feeder pellets and hemp.

Great day, conditions were good and river was at 0.55m (Hereford Bridge), with slight colour but clearing. Had a beautiful 12lb barbel last cast and three nice perch on a mepps plus the obligatory chub. Still plenty of snags about mainly mid river...so fish with care.

8 Barbel, 3 of which went over 8lb. 8lb 5oz, 8lb 8oz and 8lb 12oz. 9 Chub, several to 4.5lb, best went 5lb on the nose.
Highlight of the day was a sparrowhawk hunting at flat out speed just feet above our heads along the top of the riverbank, flying between our extended rods. The wind rush was incredible.

2 barbel and 1 chub for 1 angler. 7 chub for the other angler. Really seems to be getting harder everytime I go here.

Not a sniff all day. Tried everything as well.

Very difficult day with rain and strong winds most of the day. We managed to catch 3 Barbel up to 8lbs and 6 Chub the best just over 4lb. This venue is a excellent spot to fish but be prepared for several snaggy swims due to rocks and weed.

Great to be back here at Canon Bridge, another dry sunny day, river still quite high but looking good. Got a take on first cast within seconds and the rest were steady throughout the day. Another perfect day on the Wye, doesn’t get any better!

Fished from 1pm onwards, conditions good with plenty of colour to the water from the recent rain. Both Barbel 8-10 pounds and all Chub under a pound. Caught on pellets.
