Rainy day, ended up with 7 barbel to 8lb on pellet from the lower end of the fishery.

Both rods fished below the orchard and caught 5 barbel between 5 and 8 pounds, 3 chub, two of 4 pounds and one of 3 pounds, and one trout of approx 1 pound. The barbel, one chub & trout were caught on luncheon meat, and the other two chub on sweetcorn. All fish were in very good condition as was the river.

A much harder day than I have been used to on the Wye. Two anglers managed one barbel each plus chub and one managed five barbel. All of the fish were between 5 and 7 lb and were caught on pellet.

Two rods fished, seven barbel ranging from 5 to 9lb and seven chub from 2 to 4lb between us. All fish in immaculate condition taken on pellets and meat. Good directions from WUF and a beautiful place to fish. Many thanks.

Rod 1, 15 + Chub to 5lb on Meat, most in hectic 45 minutes in the evning. Rod 2, 4 Barbel best 8lb 5oz, several Chub best over 3lbs all on boilies.

River running clear on a nice sunny day. Unfortunately the fishing was a little slow and I finished the day with 2 small Barbel. Tried a number of swims around the orchard end but only one spot produced the fish. Will be back again soon.

A beatiful stretch of river, although it would be good to have a few more swims made. Caught 3 Barbel and 2 Chub.

4 barbel to 9lb on boillies. Boiling hot so just the evening fished for a few hours.

First time on Wye and Usk Foundation water and will be returning again! Fished the meadow below the orchid, angler 1 unfortunatly didnt catch, angler 2 had 5 barbel up to 7 1/2lbs and 2 chub on halibut pellets, and angler 3 being myself had 7 barbel biggest weighing 9lbs, 2 at 8lbs 1 of 7lbs and also 6 chub ranging from 3lbs to 5lbs. All fish were caught on boilies.

Sat 21st July: 9 Barbel to 7lbs 14oz, 2 Chub and a (PB?) 10oz Dace. Fish fed better in the morning than later on.

Sun 22nd July: A much tougher day, the hot sun seemed to put the barbel off. Decided to fish a new swim at the bottom end, managed to take 4 Barbel, a Chub, a couple of Dace and a nice suntan.
