Feedback & Reports

Washed off at Backney but it takes more than a flooded river Wye to stop us., Wye back in its banks above Hereford so quick detour to Lower Canon Bridge. 3 blanks but PW managed 2 barbel including a PB fish of 10lb 6oz. Pellet and meat were the successful baits .

2 Barbel

Tough day 4 Barbel to 8lb 12oz

4 Barbel

Tried several swims and different methods but only managed 1 barbel between us

1 Barbel

Fished upper cannon bridge instead

Conditions perfect but for some reason this beat is not the same? 2 barbel caught on krill pellet with feeder mid morning and then nothing all day & evening.

The river looked in good condition but we struggled to find any fish.
mixed bag of barbel, chub, one small jack and a trout.

2 Barbel, 1 Chub, 1 Pike, 1 Other

Hopefully the two guys who have been fishing on Thomas wood had a good days fishing after getting there dates mixed up. Lots of silvers taken on the beach swim,river again very clear also had a visiting otter. Took two good chub later in the afternoon from the swim opposite the weir garden lawns

2 Chub

A lot of river at this venue but very few swims, those that exist are opposite the gardens of the National Trust property. Only seemed to be one downstream of the boathouse - this is the swim I fished. Note that I didn’t walk to the very end of the fishery but most of the way.
Biggest barbel was 9lb & two 8lb. All fish in excellent condition.
Started fishing across to the far side and had a barbel fish cast. Very snaggy though. Ended up fishing mid river.
All fish caught on two 6mm pellets glued to the hair with a PVA bag of pellet attached.
Fishing interrupted twice for over an hour each time when an otter appeared. The fish eventually came back though.

8 Barbel, 1 Chub
