River VERY coloured. Algal bloom. Put the fish down completely. Saw 1 salmon move all day. Coloured male c.18-20lb. Tried a number of methods, surface & subsurface to no avail

River very coloured, not possible to fly fish, spinning difficult picking up weed almost every cast, could not see lure below 12inches many fish showing but not taking, tried FC also Mepps packed up after 2 hours waste of time. River in urgent need of flush through.

One salmon on the fly lost late morning after playing the fish for 3/4 minutes. Very hot!
A nice Chub taken on the spinner!

Early start, mist soon burnt off to reveal a blue, cloudless sky. Temperature and brightness increased through to midday when it became too uncomfortable for me to fish on. A few fish showing lazily in the bottom of Vanstone early on, no sightings in upper pools. Algae starting to become nuisance. Nil return today but some interest, believed to have come from shad.

River fairly low and quiet. Only one salmon seen, disturbed by another angler.

What a day! Mick the guide for the beat took me straight to the fish and following his instruction on tip, leader and fly. I landed a 12lbs cock fish slightly coloured, what a fight. All day I kept getting shad on salmon flies. To cap a great day I had a fresh sea lice salmon about 8lb on spinner. I asked Mick to have a fish and he landed a lovely salmon on fly about 9lb. Mick is a star and knows the beat like the back of his hand. Thanks Mick I will be back.

No fish seen or caught, very disappointing. Not find the Wye value for money given the amount of fish in the system.
