Arrived 07.00, caught fish from the start and during the rest of the day even in the sunshine. Packed up at 4.30 due to the early start to get here and need to get to the digs so probably missed the best of the day. All fish to pellets and boilies. A fishery that is well worth a visit but much weedier this year with lots of loose weed in the flow which didn’t make the fishing any easier.

Well I picked one of the hottest days of the year to visit the Creel! Never fished it in the summer so thought be nice to see it with it leaves on the trees. I decided on an afternoon/evening session with my lad coming along to enjoy being on the Wye. I set up around 3pm but didn't fish. Put some hemp down in the swim. Had a nice picnic under the oak trees for an hour or so with my boy. Lovely. I started around 4:30pm fishing balsa with bread and was picking up chub to 4lb from the start. Brilliant sport in the sunshine. Switched to hemp filled feeder around 7pm and caught 4 clonking Barbel on soft pellets, all between 7-8lb. What a wonderful summers evening on the Wye. Must have been a dream because England won that amazing test match too! Thanks WUF for this special memory.

It was great to finally get back on the creel , it’s quite difficult to get a booking these days as it’s become increasingly popular due to a particular fishing show .
The weather was Fantastic yet again , it took a while to get my first bite but once I had located the fish the bites became more frequent, usual pellet / feeder approach. Fished from 12pm till 8:30, love this beat can’t wait to return .

Hair rigged pellet fishing for barbel. River just above normal, little colour remaining. Wonderful, peaceful venue

First time on this beat and loved it. Lots of different types of water to fish. Really beautiful location - very peaceful. Parking not too far from the river. Tried some float fishing throughout the day but no joy. All fish caught on feeder and pellet throughout the day. Two of the barbel were biggest i've seen on the Wye - must have been close to 9lbs
Cracking beat.
