Feedback & Reports

Arrived at about 8am and fished until dusk. River up by a couple of feet with lots of colour, clearing throughout the day. Lots of missed bites, I suspect Chub or Eels. Caught 8 average sized Chub, two Barbel (plus a third that was foul hooked) with the biggest and last fish of the day at 7lb 11oz and an Eel. I spent the day switching between the feeder with hemp, pellet and boilie and a straight lead with meat.
Stretch is very peaceful with plenty of space and good access and parking but the bottom field is a caravan club site at this time of year, so may be inaccessible.

Great days fishing today, first time on the stretch, certainly won't be the last! Conditions were obviously just right, a bit of extra water, colour and generally overcast although very wet by the end of the afternoon. 24 barbel between us, from about 4lb and the biggests going 11.1oz. Tactics were just a simple feeder approach and we only fished until about 5:30pm. It is a lovely stretch and looking forward to returning.

River coloured and flowing, looked good. Nice stretch, easy walk from the car. Fish caught throughout the day, mostly from the faster section close in under the trees on feeders and pellets. Upstream section quite overgrown, steep banks along section but plenty of swims.
Only downside of the day was that I fell down the bank and dislocated my shoulder, ending up in Hereford A&E! No fault apart from my own.

Took the old man on his first trip to the Wye today, he's never caught a barbel before and catches 6 barbel on his first visit compared to my humble 3, a chub each of 3lbs to finish the day. Fished from 10.30 till 17.00, so a very good day, Biggest Barbel was 8lbs, smallest was 5lbs, all caught on halibut pellets/ feeder.

Nice beat caught 5 barbel in the evening on meat and pellets river was high and the odd tree branch came floating past found a nice swim near the island out of the main current a very enjoyable day thank you.

5 Barbel

We fished pellet feeder method at various swims thought the beat. No barbel at all, only 2 chub. I think that maybe we caught the fishery on a bad day as the same methods produced on 3 other beats fished during our long weekends fishing trip. Still a very nice place to spend the day, beware of a long walk back to the car park up a steep hill. I imagine if you are out of shape it would be very difficult carrying tackle.
Regards.
