Tough day on this lovely stretch of the wye . On the day of the local fun ride so we saw lots of riders along the bank. River was about 5 foot up and carrying some colour so should have been good for barbel. Could just about hold the far bank with 3 oz but lost hooklength to snags. We caught no barbel on meat or pellet but had 8 nice chub to meat - many of them under the bank which was nice. Don't know how the salmon anglers got on - we only saw a couple (salmon)crashing about. We were on beat 5 but wish we had explored further downstream.

8 Chub

River was still high and coloured, but both falling and clearing. A beautiful day but no fish were caught ( three rods). Two fish were seen both at the mid point of beat 6.

Beautiful stretch, river steady about 18" above low summer level. Walking involved to most swims

No fish caught only fished the morning due to really bad weather

Greeted with a low clear river on our arrival at this beautiful beat, which made fishing very difficult. All the fish caught came to pellet feeder tactics , largest Barbel 9lb 8ozs. Lots of wildlife on show , including a pair of Otters, Buzzards, Peregrins and Kingfishers.

River rising no fish caught went home early!

Nice days fishing but a tough beat to conquer for finding Mr Trout late August. A pleasant day on the river Wye but unfortunately no catch. Further up river I think next time. Some very big Chub past locksters pool down stream and seeing big pike late in evening at the pool.

We enjoyed our visit to Whitney Court beautiful part of the river. For any less able Angler it is a long walk from the parking area on the upper beats to the more popular swims.
