Well we had a fantastic day on the river wye . Spent the day feeder fishing , with great rewards. Barbel from 7lb to 11.4oz what a whopper. :) and chub from 3lb to 5lb .

4 Barbel, 15 Chub

Poor catch as one of our party had a fall and we had to cut our day short

First time fishing this beat. River had dropped considerably over the past week and clearer than expected. Slow in the day but picked up late afternoon into the evening. Good access to swims but the steep path down to the river could be dodgy in the wet! An enjoyable session on this peaceful stretch, apart from the chorus of chainsaws for a short while, things also improved when my mate lent me some of his bait! Would definitely return to this beat at some point in the future

Water coming down from flood, difficult fishing and only 2 barbel and 2 chub to record. Spam the most effective bait on the day, fish in the slacks.

Strange day in almost ideal conditions. 3 Barbel from one swim within the first hour (started at 11) then nothing at all for the rest of the day, despite moving swims and trying different baits and methods.

Highlight of the day was my uncle catching his very first Barbel within minutes of his very first cast on any river - it was a monster at 10lb 11! Quite incredible.

Great beat with good access and lots of available pegs

Fished the first field due to conditions with fish caught and a few missed in each swim fished. Fantastic looking beat plenty of swims - this beat offers something for all conditions. Biggest fish 10lb 8 oz to my mate.... all others probably between 4-7lb.

A great days fiahing on a stunning section of the Wye. River high and rising with a lot of debris coming down but still a good number of fishable swims. Fished the first swim in the meadow to start but moved further up after a fruitless couple of hours. Managed to find fish in a near side slack and caught steadily through the remainder of the day. Biggest barbel went 9lb 2oz.
