Fished the morning. swimmers everywhere in the afternoons and evening. Very hot can’t blame them. All caught on the float. Very enjoyable.

Spent the afternoon rolling meat. River low as expected but ideal for wading around various swims. Funnily enough most positive takes were when canoe track was highest. Great fun rolling meat under canoes.

Arrived at 05.30am maps and directions were excellent as usual, river was extremely low & the weather had changed overnight from a predicted cool & cloudy day to a very hot sunny day and boy was the fishing hard, it was hard enough trying to find water deep enough never mind trying to find holding fish and long enough before they got spooked by the splash of my lead. Sure enough second cast in the first pool got me a fish before it went dead, moved very quickly into my next swim and sure enough first cast got me another fish until sun was high in the sky and struggled for the next 4 hours walking up and down the beat trying to locate fish, tried the usual methods and bait, pellet, meat & boilie.
Thanks WUF and Land Owner for providing excellent access to an excellent river, will be back again soon, after some well earned rain! ll

Weather forecast changed overnight (nothing new there!) from predicted cool overcast conditions into hot, muggy sunny day, so i was not expecting a red letter day!
Arrived at 05.30am, struggled to find fish let alone water deep enough to fish, when i did caught a large Chub and small Barbel very early on, fished a number of pools but i suspect each time a cast my lead in i would spook the shoal, therefore the first cast would be the only time i would catch, and true to form it ended that way, tried all baits and usual methods but one the sun broke through bites dried up, persevered until mid-day when increased canoe traffic became unacceptable then when home early to watch the F1.
Thanks again WUF and Land Owner for allowing us access to such a great stretch of river.

Absolute zilch

First time fishing Wyebank but having seen it was producing a few, albeit small, barbel thought I’d give a go on an evening ticket when the canoes had gone. Was surprised to see how pacey the water was even in low conditions. Fished a couple of different swims on bomb and pellet as I couldn’t get the float to run through effectively in the swims without people playing in/near the water. 7 little barbel about a pound plus one of 3 and one of five. One of the chub was about 4lb. A nice evening.

Snaggy water for feeder fishing but the fish were there in decent numbers. All three anglers caught barbel up to 5lbs which made it a pretty good day out.
