Lovely place, tried a few pegs but we found the fish in the end. Barbel to just over 9lb. Seen several salmon jumping too, which is always a stunning sight.

13 Barbel, 4 Chub

We parked by the river near the pump which was running. We had a long walk to the top end of the fishery there are few swims but there are some. David caught a chublet to start on maggot followed by a nice 9lb Barbel on hair rigged sweetcorn. The a whopping 7lb Chub came to his net using spiced luncheon meat this time.
Colin could only manage a Chublet to maggot and two 31b Chub to luncheon meat.
Thanks Wye and Usk.

Good day most of the fish in one area and most of the barbel under 12oz! Never seen so many small barbel on the Wye from all sections. Are they showing because the bigger fish weren't feeding? Thanks wuf.

All fairly small fish, but a barbel bite is a barbel bite. A pleasant day out.

Difficult day as could not find the fish despite trying several swims. Only hook up was an eel which fortunately dropped off at the net .

Lots of river to fish but only caught in 2 swims. Beautiful surroundings easy access, will return here for another crack at it, enjoyed our day.

EPR and I love this beat. Stunning scenery and wildlife, as well as great fishing. When we have spoken to the farm owners they are very polite and helpful. The dog ate a lot of EPR pellets and bollies whist he was playing a barbel which was entertaining!
The circling buzzards is always a highlight as is the stunning scenery.
The river was rising and slightly coloured. We couldn't hold bottom with a 60g feeder over half way. There was quite a lot of rubbish coming down the river throughout the day.
EPR had a stunning day after yesterday's misery (see Sugwas Court review) with an award winning 12 barbel and 1 chub. He would have caught plenty more but for his arrogance and need for cider, which demanded we left before dusk. I caught 4 barbel and three chub.
Thank you WUF. We shall be back next year.
