Started at 4am, before it got too hot and found some shade in the woods along walk up the hill. Caught plenty of chub on pellets, many thanks.

Hard day, too hot, low water conditions, made our own swim below the wood.
Challenging ! 2 Chub caught as the cloud cover began, late on. Only saw 3 Canoes all day.

On a very hot day on a low river we headed for the wood and fished the faster water of the lucky stones which turned out to be not lucky at all as the barbel simply would not feed . Fortunately we were kept entertained by a ravenous shoal of chub which took whatever we put on the hook below our feeder rigs . In all we managed 33 , mainly in the 2 to 3lb range with 27 coming to one rod . The hill round the wood was a real killer in the near 30 degrees heat .

With the river starting to clear, bright conditions today made for a slow session. I fished most of the day in a high water swim in the top field that had previously proved productive, and had to work hard to catch 3 barbel up to 5lb by midday. I sat it out until the evening in this swim, but failed to get another bite. A move further downstream for the last half hour resulted in one hook pull, followed by a barbel of 7lb 11oz before i had to pack up.

X3 rods here today & X 2 chub caught. Not the best day. Conditions looked ideal on the Wye this week with most fish feeding, except the barbel! Water temp. 46, high and dropping, nice colour. This beat usually produces so not sure why the whiskers weren't interested!

Lovely spring day with the river in good order despite the strong flow causing plenty of debris to whizz by. Had a barbel and a chub within an hour of starting then nothing till 5 o'clock then four fish in four casts. Finished with 4 barbel and 2 chub caught on halibut pellet with paste wrap. My fishing partner struggled, and paid the price for not starting in a swim he had identified as being the most likely to produce . Whilst he dallied another fisherman dropped into that peg and had a good day. He ended the day with a minnow and a grayling .
