Perfect conditions this time for fishing the Wye, not tropical heat . Early start and a beautiful morning. I was into the chub from the first cast. River was a nice pace and that brown colour has run out, leaving sparkly water again. I fished feeder with bread flake to have fun with the chub on my new feeder rod, then I switched to a big balsa and had even more fun trotting bread or meat, it was great sport. Chub up to 5lb on the float, superb. I switched back to feeder and fished pellet for an hour and truly christened my new feeder rod with a splendid 9lb 5oz barbel, in fact my first barbel of the season. Happy man. Then back on the float fishing meat and caught more Chub and 2 barbel around 5lb each. I went home with a nice big smile on my face, wonderful day. I love hungry Chub as equally as Barbel so I had a great mixed bag. Thanks to WUF for this lovely scenic beat and the access.

We fished in perfect conditions around 20 degrees and cloudy, the method used was cage feeders with fishmeal pellets either hair rigged or banded. The biggest barbel was just over 8lb and the biggest club was around 5lb

Well this being the start of our 2 days on the Wye, all three of us where looking forward to it and no better place to get it up and running then here at Fownhope. The fishing was not as good as previous years but we still manages to get few nice fish . M H 17 chub and two very nice roach, all from the far side of Hamburger Hill, all on pellets. As for S G he was fishing in the woods and had 7 barbel and 15 chub, again all on pellets. S M started in the woods had 3 chub then moved down to the first field and ended up with 3 more chub. The down side to the day was again see two other fishermen what they call village rights fishing even though there is a new sign saying passport fishing only this is not the first time this has happen to us so maybe when i book up a beat again we could have it at half price .
