7 barbel to 9lbs and 4 chub to 4lbs between the two of us. The fishing was quite slow with brief periods of action and long periods of catching nothing. However, there is always something to watch on this lovely beat - and buzzards and kingfishers brightened the day. Canoeists were friendly and well behaved - and clearly enjoyed their day as much as we did ours.

7 Barbel, 4 Chub

No fish caught, mainly due to approx 10 anglers fishing the best pegs from the far bank. The farmer is apparently selling day tickets for his bank and undercutting the price charged by the foundation.

Scorching sunny day with cloudless sky's. River low and clear, beautiful stretch although vehicle access down track could do with a trim. Enjoyable social fishing, 17 pristine barbel up to 8.5lbs and 5 Chub up to 4.12lbs. Pellet feeders, alternating between type of pellet and hook length.

A new beat for me and what a lovely place. River pushing through quite strongly with a lot of rubbish in the flow. Managed to find a fairly protected area and took 9 barbel and 2 chub between us for the day. Barbel to 8lb 7oz, with a new pb of 6lb 2oz for my friend. All taken on pellet.

River was high, fast and coloured but just about fishable. No fish landed, but one hooked and lost towards the end of the day. This is a lovely beat with lots of wildlife - that and the anticipation of an eternal optimist made it a very enjoyable day.

The river was all but impossible to fish but perseverance paid off. A beautiful stretch of the Wye. I will definitely return.

River rose over 11 feet overnight and was the colour of a Costa Coffee latte.
3 barbel to 2 rods on pellet feeder. Only 3 fishable pegs due to height of river backing up Carey Brook and a dyke at the bottom end of the fishery making a large part of the beat inaccessible. Couldn't be helped, nature's intervention.
As ever, lovely surroundings, far better than work!
