After much debate about current conditions we decided to go ahead with the trip, the unexpected but much appreciated cloud cover lasted to past midday. Despite the river being low and clear we managed to winkle a few decent Chub out of the streamer weed but once the cloud had gone it was a waste of time, packed up and on the way home by 7pm. Two others were Eels.
8 Chub, 2 Other

River low and clear. Half a dozen Chub from the streamer weed on meat. The huge bull and his harem with several calves in the first field was a bit unnerving!!.

Good day on the wye but slightly disappointing ending with not getting another barbel or two. Rivers on its knees and you can see the bottom in pretty much all the stretch, especially when the sun gets up, but that didn’t stop the chub who were good sport all day on float and feeder tactics. Other was 2 eel and 1 dace, eels proved difficult to unhook as always but we got there in the end lol

Chub on the float, river slightly brown and coloured but still low. No activity from the barbel, however a very enjoyable day. Will be back when it’s cooler in September.

Lovely day , bright and sunny so not ideal conditions, but there was colour in the water. Lots of streamer weed so a bit challenging finding clear spots to fish.
Only fished early morning to early afternoon.
Was really pleased and surprised to have a couple of big eels on meat.
Bites were steady all day - the eels were actually midday in bright sunshine which was unexpected
There was a small herd of cows with very young calves and a large bull at the entrance to the field and I had to wait quite a long time for these to move off as didn’t want to walk too close to these.
