Got there at 2.30pm. Had already been warned by Terry it was high and coloured so may not be worth going, except with a spinning rod. He was right! Walked the beat for half an hour just to have a look and left at 3pm.

River a good height and clear but rising.Dr Spence and his Wife fished beat 5 in the morning and were seeing fish moving but made no contact. Afternoon a syndicate rod took a 12lb fish to a spinner on beat 4.Fish seen running,a few shad about.

1 Salmon

Lovely fly caught fish today on beat 2 to a syndicate member 14lb. Landed by Tom. Worked hard this morning to entice the fish which were showing but sadly no salmon and then the effort was rewarded. Same too [apparently] at Letton Court. Lets hope we get more water.

A super fresh fish of about 10 lb this morning on beat 3 to a size 8 Willie Gunn. One fish lost on beat 4. Fish showing last night and this morning. Lets hope they keep on coming.

Strong complement of rods out today but sadly nothing to report other than we do have fish in the pools. 2 fish lost this morning and fish showing on beats 5 and 3. Better luck tomorrow.

Late report Wednesday evening, beat 1. Lovely 16lb fish to syndicate rod on a Devon Minnow. Fish showing on the beat, superb conditions.

1 Salmon

First time on this lovely stretch of river.Plenty of nice fly water,but failed to connect.Under fished for some reason but I will be back to try again.

First ever Wye salmon on the fly! Home tied at that, called "Harriets Best" thanks no 1 daughter. 14 lb, released strong, caught at tail of the rapids on beat 6. Had 2 other raging takes during the day but not stuck. 10 year break from salmon fishing with lots of memories of fishless hours, wiped clean, good day!

1 Salmon, 1 Trout

Syndicate rod, Dr. Spence took a superbly fresh 15lb fish he saw show on beat 5 to a small toby.

Fabulous conditions and superb water but sadly not a fish seen by any of the 3 rods on this beat today. Lets hope more fish arrive tomorrow as the conditions will stay good.
