Feedback & Reports

Poor day, not even a bite, although first time we fished this venue. Conditions not easy (sunny, clear,low water).
Fished beats 3, 4 and 5 did a lot of walking, nice place as expected but long drive home.

Saw fish on both beat 2 and beat 3 but failed to catch anything.

Beautiful beat, beautiful day, blank. Operator error.

River in great condition now. Salmon showing on all the beats. Bright sunshine didn't help yesterday but Tim Kelly hooked a lost a good fish on beat 6. Two weeks left so more fish expected.

Ten pound hen fish from No 3 on size 10 Irish Gold shrimp double, hooked at 1855 on what was meant to be last casts of the day.Netted in the dusk

1 Salmon

None caught, one fish seen.

Conditions were good. Fish caught early but very bright and sunny weather put fish off later nice stretch of the river with varied flow.

4.30pm - 10Lb cock fish caught on 1" black and yellow tube, very coloured fish, returned safely.

Water 1'3" on the Erwood gauge, clearing.

Many thanks to the WUF guys for sorting me out at such short notice and thanks to Terry for putting me on the fish!

Had a superb day fishing, lots of barbel, smallest was 6.5lb and biggest was my brothers new pb of 9lb. Had a 5lb chub trotting the float, best fun I've ever had, lots of decent floatfishing to be had in Whitney court. This was our second visit, we came last week, had to come again! Beautiful stretch of the Wye, lots of fishable swims, recommend strongly to travel light, as the only way is to move on if your not getting any bites...
We met Terry the bailiff/gamekeeper, he had some invaluable advice and was very forthcoming and friendly and pointed out to the hotspots!
Can't wait to come again, might book it out for a few more days next time! Found that any baits worked, if they're where I the swim, they're gonna take your bait, we were using luncheon meat and pellet in paste..

14 Barbel, 6 Chub

Red letter day in late Summer at Whitney, 17 chub 3-4 pound and 2 6 pound Barbel all caught on waggler in fast water. The most scenic and impressive farmland in the passport, a great location.
