Another good session on this little fished beat. Two barbel and two chub on Sticky krill dumbbell and running ledger setup. River was considerably lower today and less colour in the water.

Weather was bright and warm apart from a single, brief shower. Two chub (3.5lb and 6lb) taken on Sticky krill dumbbell fished on a running ledger. Hooked another but it unhooked itself in a snag. River was falling initially but rose a little towards lunchtime.

No fish caught, river was very coloured.
The land owner (farmer) claimed the fishing rights were not available for day ticket fishing, he asked that the Wye and Usk foundation contact him to clarify the arrangement. Thanks
Fishing Passport Note : We will happily discuss this with the landowner who is not the owner of the fishing rights.

No barbel on a very low river, despite best efforts of four seasoned Wye anglers, rain dance needed

Low water and lack of access points to the river make for a limited day's fishing! Shame as its a lovely stretch!
Chub fell to pellet waggler and rolled meat!

Various baits and methods used. Fish caught feeder fishing with meat. River conditions difficult with low levels and little flow.
Other anglers on both banks also found fishing hard. With some more water I'm sure more fish would have been caught, nice stretch of river free from snags.
