Feedback & Reports

Arrived to a dramatic looking storm looming behind the Church, luckily we all caught fish before it arrived, we had to really bat-ton down the hatches at 4 pm, that really killed the fishing but had a brilliant 6 days on the Wye, no big catches all week but Barbel every day and some decent weather and local refreshments. Highly rate the Creel, plenty of good swims and easy parking and access to beat.

Lovely stretch of river with good convenient parking at church carpark and access to river along a farm track. Access to swims is quite steep but there were several available to us allowing comfortable fishing. All fish came to various pellet on lead or feeder tactics. River came up slightly while we were there and flow increased necessitating a change to heavier leads/feeders later in the day.

River was flowing nicely, and dropping but the weather was brilliant sunshine and very hot. Most fish came our on pellet feeder.
