Feedback & Reports

A difficult day, the weather not what we expected at all, two heavy thunder storms with fork lightning and torrential rain restricted the fishing somewhat but did manage to land
3 Barbel, 4 Chub and 1 eel. All fish taken on meat.

Fished the woods from morning till 3 taking a 1 hour rest in a swim in the second field. The river was coloured and coming through at a fair pace. All three barbel came within an hour and a half the largest was 5lb 10.
Beautiful fishery and very strong healthy fish. My first visit to the Wye and I'll definitely be returning.

Landed a barbel on the first cast of the day, unfortunately that was it. Did catch a nice trout, it took pellet as I was reeling in.

Another unbelievable day at one of our favourite beats. The fish are a lot more cagey at this time of year and it was a struggle to hold them for any amount of time. We both had the centrepins screaming on one occasion which was something to remember!!
Fish caught from different areas on the beat.

Fished for 2 days and had around 13 barbel and 8 chub between us. River looked great but fishing was quite hard. Lost loads of gear fishing in the swims in the woods, so much so it became impossible. Spent most of the second day in the first field, less snags but less fish.

We fished the field after the wooded section and took all fish on pellet and ground bait feeder. This is a nice beat and will be back. The walk around the wooded section is not too bad if you travel light.

River looked great, fish were taking a combination of meat and pellets.

Hard fishing again, or we got it wrong. A lot of debris coming through from the rain the day before. Great stretch of river though and will visit again. We did manage 2 chub and a barbel around 7lb. Felt as though the fishing was picking up as we had to head home.
Wish we could be fishing this week with coloured and rising water level. All fish fell to feeder tactics.
Great day all in all. Can't wait to get booked up again.
Anyone looking for accommodation, we would highly recommend the Cottage of Content at Carey.
Note for WUF. Noticed no dogs allowed on this stretch yet the stretch is along a public footpath and dog walkers were present all day.
Would just have liked to have brought my dog along.

Lovely days fishing sitting in the rain most of the day
All fish on pellet. Fished in the woods, slippery walk back.
