Great day on the creel, found the fish from the first cast and caught throughout the day literally every cast. No chub smaller the 2.5lb and the barbel were all between 6-8lb. Pellet feeder and pellet hookbaits responsible for all the fish.

Interesting venue with rather steep banks, but luckily we both enjoy climbing, so we managed to get down to the waters edge. Our tactics were feeders loaded with Hemp and Pellet with either Pellet or Luncheon Meat on the hook, hence an Eel being the other fish. By the end of the day, we had had our best days fishing so far on the Wye and we will definitely be back to this beat. River was low, with a little colour.

Came back to the Church Stream Pool for the second day. Caught a few chub to 4 lb from the start at 9 am, then the wind got up bringing a very large branch crashing down into the water. This made stately passage through the swim and killed action for a while. Like the previous day, the barbel took a while to appear, finally arriving at 12.30. Then caught 5 on pretty much consecutive casts (only interrupted by a chub between barbel nos 3 and 4. The biggest was a nice fish of 8 1/2 lb. Moved upstream to the Church field for the final couple of hours, where had a bite a chuck fishing across towards the far bank - every one a chub. Lost a few in the weed, but ended up with a dozen from this spot. All fish took 11 or 12 mm pellets, even an 8 oz tiddler. This beat certainly produces fish, but beware of the steep banks if you are not that agile.
