Feedback & Reports

River clear and normal level. Cloudy/ sunny. Fished around 10:00 to 19:00, 2 swims above and below biblins bridge both steep high banks, glad I took my rope. Slow fishing, 1 chub around 4lb and an eel in the morning on light ledger link with luncheon meat. Pellet and Feeder in the afternoon, lots of chubby bites and finally landed 1 fine barbel just under 10lb.
Canoes and paddle boards all very mutually respectful.

Lovely section of river very busy with scout camps on opposite bank and canoes, walkers but apart from that had a great day and hope to get back soon

Overcast, drizzley day. 3 good chub but hard work getting bites

3 Chub

Canoes on the go from 4.30am. Fell over while wading and had a good soaking to go with being fishless. Did enjoy myself though

Nothing seen, nothing caught.

I did not catch much, just one eel, but what a stunning fishery. Thanks to Fishing Passport for providing access to this and to other Wye fisheries. Hope to come next year and try again.

What can I say for our first visit to Lower Symonds Yat??...... stunning venue to blank at!! Not so much as a sniff!!
Spent most of the day just downstream of the Biblins bridge trotting meat as so much Autumnal debris made fishing the feeder almost impossible. This method worked for us on other stretches of the Wye, I guess today we just didn't land on fish despite several moves.

Lovely days fishing. River up a bit and coloured so good conditions for barbel and they obliged to the feeder and pellet tactics.some cracking chub too were caught on the same method a great autumn session .

Fished near the foot bridge. Caught a 10lb+ barbel near the rapids down stream of the foot bridge. Good shoal of chub upsteam of the rapids. Caught one barbel 7lb float fishing sitting on the ledge down stream of the foot bridge. You need a rope and spike to access the swims.
