Nothing caught. River low with no flow and and it was extremely hot and bright. The style providing access to the stretch does need a repair. The top board is loose and could result in an accident.

It is a stunning stretch on the Wye, the scenery is well worth the steep walk

Very disappointed that no mention in the fishing guide highlighted that the walk down to the field from car parking was heart attack territory for a 70 year old. I fished with my Uncle and he had real problems with the walk down to the field. Sure it mentions that some of the pegs are steep and travel light which we did and we found some pegs no problem there, but the initial walk down from where you park should be included in the beat description. Poor show here.

The fishing itself was very hard, tried a number of pegs but nothing apart from a small chub on meat. Tried a waggler, feeder and rolling bait. The river itself was low and a lot of algae smothered rocks, the river not very clear - not a great beat and definitely would not be back here.

River was up & pushing through with a nice bit of colour, tried three swims eventually found some fish mid afternoon, biggest Barbel probably just about a double & best Chub around 5lb, throughly enjoyed the day stayed until sunset, what a great way to end the season in this wonderful valley always something special about catching the Prince of the river
