River in perfect condition which is more than could be said for the weather - high winds and torrential rain! The two barbel were caught by one angler late in the afternoon and three of the chub were really chublets.

2 Barbel, 4 Chub

Beautiful, hard to say more. Had great day apart from weather and doing an impression of the scared cat in Tom and Jerry when sliding towards the water. Raining hard and slippy but a great day. Three barbel, all over seven pounds and hard fishing but weather not ideal. Thanks WUF, great experience.

No fish unfortunately. Weather didn't help but I will return.

Extremely hot day so realistically, we didn't expect to catch any salmon, rather just enjoy the river. One chub around a pound decided to surprise us by latching on to the fly. River needs some fresh water to stir things up a little. Nice to see so much fry around the margins.

Blanked. Bright sun, low river levels. Who knows? Will probably fish better now we have had some rain.

5am start again and first barbel caught at 5.10am. 5 barbel in total caught in morning session. Came back at 5pm and and had 1 more barbel and 1 eel. Left early for the long drive home. Another great day on the Wye.

Early start at 5 am but only 1 barbel caught. Returned at 5pm and had 7 barbel and 5eels. All barbel between 4 and 8 lb and caught on pellet and ground bait feeder. In all a brilliant day in the hot low water conditions.

Low water levels and no weed cover. Poor maintenance of swims with overgrown brambles, nettles, balsam etc.

Struggled in the morning as it was a boiling hot day but had 3 nice barbel late afternoon fishing from the croy near the noisy water pump. A few salmon hanging about in that pool too. Lovely beat, will explore more of it next time.
