Second day on this stretch. Barbel in the same place on the last stretch. Lost nine as they were not feeding as confidently as usual. Good quality chub up to five pounds in excellent condition. Caught on meat, pellet feeder, cheese and sweet corn.

Great to be back on this extremely well kept stretch of the Wye. Thanks for all the hard work Colin.
Barbel harder to find than usual. Finally located them at the bottom end. River low and coloured, successful bait was meat and pellet feeder.

Water low and warm, a few fish about in the deeper water.

Our first time on the Wye, so we wasted a fair bit of time fishing swims that looked fishy but weren't. Eventually we found where the fish were and were happy with the results. River was lowish but with a little colour - downstream wind a bit of a nuisance. Barbel came to meat or pellet (around 7 lb each). Lovely spot and will certainly try this stretch again.

River low and swims changed a lot since last year with the floods.
Barbel hard to temp with all the usual offerings had to wait till the evening to get a few although they were jumping out of the water all day! My son had 35 Chub on the float to 5lb on hemp and sweetcorn in 2 hrs before the sun and arm ache got the better of him. Feeder tactics gave him 5 more Chub and 1 Barbel.
I stuck to the feeder mostly 16 Chub and 4 Barbel being my reward.
My 60th season angling and a fabulous day spent with my son on the beautiful river Wye. All the bird life and catching fish is a bonus.
Thanks Wye and Usk Foundation and to the baliff Colin for keeping the swims so beautifully mown and strimmed. Good to see Colin and catch up on the changes to the beats swims and best approach to find the fish.

Lovely days fishing. All fish fell to pellet mostly on feeder. Had a chat with Colin, lovely guy who does a great job. Back again October. Cannot wait.

A very well kept beat. Lots of chub on the float and a couple of barbel on pellets. A very enjoyable day. Levels very low, needs plenty of rain. Thanks.

Having risen by a few inches last week, the river had dropped right back and was running crystal clear. Bright sun and a temperature of 27 degrees made roving a non-starter so spent a great day admiring the scenery.

River, low, warm and clear. Chub feeding, the barbel were unpredictable as to what time of day they would feed. No issues with the Foundations service, data provided was excellent and overall, a great two days fishing. Here's to next time.
