The river conditions were not ideal as it was low and clear, but with overcast conditions hopes were high. Fishing from 7am till dark on beat 4 & 3. The action kicked off straight away with a 6lb 8oz barbel first chuck for me, and a 7lb 4oz for J.P. I then followed that with a 7lb 14oz 2 hours later, when it started to brighten up as the cloud cover dispersed. A few chub were caught, the best being 4lb 12oz by S.P. The afternoon was very slow with 2 bites had but no fish. I lost a large fish about an hour before dark, and few more chub bites were had but no more fish landed. We all fished halibut and hemp though the groundbait feeder. A great day out in gorgeous surroundings. Will definitely be back.

River low but in lovely condition now and plenty of sport for the rods who fished this week. 7 good pike reported to 22lb from beats 2 and 6. Barbel shoaling up now and were caught well when they were located. Good bags of dace and chub reported from beat 2. Salmon showing in some numbers but no one fishing for them.

7 Pike

Fished Loxter's Pool during the day, nothing caught (two salmon jumping). Moved upstream to the island at the top of the fishery and had a barbel at dusk.

Low clear river, hot and sunny in the day, two bites all day, one pike landed weighing 18lb 9oz taken on a small roach trotted through slack water. Day ended early with a trip to A&E with a poorly finger cut to the bone chopping the head off a mackerel whilst trying not to take my eye of the float. Still a good day out.

Firstly big thanks to Terry Ward for putting me on to the fish. Brilliant day all round, excellent fishery, wild, clean, and no litter. Caught from the first cast and continued like that all day. Fished from the gravel bar on Beat 4 and later in Loxsters Pool. Landed everything I hooked. Biggest chub was 4lb 10oz and biggest barbel was 9lb 10oz. Again thanks for an excellent days fishing on my birthday. Will certainly book again.

Great day fishing. I had a pike of 14lbs followed by one of 21lbs and finished with a monster chub of nearly 7lbs. My mate had two 4lb chub, a trout and some tiddlers.

Bright and sunny, perhaps not ideal for this open stretch of water. Tried pellets over hemp, s/corn, bread & paste but only pork provided bites. Barbel, largest at 8lb 10ozs in superb condition. Soporific state (mine) repeatedly disturbed by a number of salmon crashing about. Pleasant day in superb surroundings.

Weather overcast, with drizzle in the morning, sunny through afternoon. Wye was in good condition after recent rain, fishing excellent. 12 chub caught, all good size, four well over 5lb. Barbel were harder to find had to move around and eventually bagged one of 8lb.
All were caught on hair rigged halibut pellet with ground bait feeder. Fishing did die as bright conditions moved in. Fished 7am to 5pm. Very good days fishing and thanks to Terry for his sound Advice.
