Water level very low and gin clear the canoes were painful getting stuck and paddling in the swim.

Once again it was nice to be on the river, with this being my fellow angler's first trip to Foy. Weather wise, we had the perfect day and although the water level was low there were enough spots to target. We both fished from the nearside bank at the last peg, where we caught 14 chub and 1 barbel. I moved to the middle peg and caught 5 chub and a last cast barbel. I also caught the other from this peg, which was an eel.
We used a variety of hook baits with halibut pellets and halibut luncheon meat being the most successful for 90% of the landed fish, which were all in lovely condition and actually unhooked in the net in the water.

A great morning's fishing despite the low and clear river conditions all fish caught using ledgering tactics stopped fishing around 2pm when the canoe traffic got too hectic but all in all a lovely little stretch!

River painfully low all along this short stretch. Confirmed by the roe deer that waded across under foy bridge an hour after sunrise. Fished the water before rapids resulting in 3 barbel in 3 casts. An hour after sunrise.
Then some chub of 2 to 3lb. Tried trundling meat through fast section when it went quiet about lunchtime but gave up with all the canoes trying to navigate down through the fast water. Went back on feeder up above the rapids with krill groundbait hemp and maize. Had 6 more barbel and more chub. Late afternoon into evening.
My best day on the Wye so far.
