Fabulous day on one of my favourite stretches. Day started badly with a stinging wasp attack but soon picked up. Rising river brought the Barbel out to play. Bigest 10lb 2oz, 9lb 7oz, 9lb 4oz, 9lb 3oz, 9lb 2oz to mention a few. Numerous eights. Boilies with groundbait feeder tactics did the damage. Great beat, thank you Wye & Usk will be back soon

River low and clear, settled into two swims near the car park, I quickly moved after snagging up a few times and finished with 3 chub, got desperate at the end and had the last 2 on bread, couldn't buy a bite on all different pellet or meat, CH had 4 barbel and lost 4 in a snag plus quite a few feeders, biggest weighed in at 9.1lb, basically he battered me, next stop Foy tomorrow.

We fished the beat all day with not a bite till 7pm due to the hot sunny weather then the barbel switched on and a hectic hour resulted in 8 barbel to 9lbs 4oz and two chub.

The fishing gods were not with me, I came, I saw, I had a massive blank!! Super lovely beat though, will come again.

River was very low & clear, all fish caught in evening apart from 1 chub, biggest barbel was about 8lb, all fish caught from the top end of beat in the deeper water. Quite a few canoe's around lunch time some of whom spent more time in the water than in the canoe which put paid to the fishing for a couple of hours it was a very hot day so we left the fishing for a pint in the Mill Race pub. After some refreshments in the pub we returned & walked the whole beat but decided to stick with the deeper water at the top where the barbel eventually started to show

River low and clear and weather not ideal. Most of the fish were caught after 4pm to pellet. I wish I had taken waders to try and stalk some fish out of the shallow runs when the sun was high. Perfect conditioned hard fighting fish. Biggest barbel was 8lb and biggest chub was 4lb 2oz.
