Another tough day on the Wye today. The river was less chocolate coloured this far upstream and looked absolutely perfect but unfortunately the fish thought otherwise.
We roved around for the afternoon and picked off a few fish before settling into a couple of swims for the evening. The barbel seemed uninteresting in feeding even though we saw them numerous times jumping out of the water and breaching the surface. Fortunately a few obliged with the best going 7.9.
A highlight of the day was watching some big looking perch chasing dace right into the margins below my feet.

We came in search of the Wye Barbel but the conditions were warm and the river fairly low. Regardless, we had that great faith that all anglers have, which keeps you coming back for more ! Unfortunately we didn't get the catch we wanted, but what a lovely place in the height of summer to spend your time with family and friends. Lots went into the planning; with plenty of laying down bait & tactics/kit in many swims (hemp, garlic hemp, pellet, halibut mix, garlic hemp, spicy krill, paprika luncheon meat and luncheon meat; all in different mixes). Used cage, longer and shorter hook lengths, PVA bags, . The easiest pegs to get too are the ones nearer to the farm but go all the way round past the Weir (roughly about 6-8 good pegs for fishing). It is a great venue, we just weren't good enough on the day! We'll be back !
