Returning to the Wye after a fabulous week last year, this time I brought my wife with me and today was her first outing!! I am not sure which of us was more anxious. It was a grey overcast day, but warm. The river had a good colour but wasn't chugging through and there wasn't any floating weed, logs or other obstructions apart from the steady flow of canoes. Having introduced the Mrs to the basics and how and why we would be fishing a hair rigged pellet below a swim feeder, we moved onto casting. Fortunately the swim we had was wide enough for two and provided access to water level. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly she picked it up. Needless to say she had the first bite and the adrenalin kicked in, she didn't know what had hit her, so I took over and just as well, the fight was on. 15 minutes later we had 'her' first barbel in the net at 9lb 8oz!! The day carried on like this with a regular bites and about a fish an hour. the other barbel were 5lb, 2x 8lb and 10lb dead. The two chub were healthy and were around 3 and 4lb respectively. The other was an eel! It was a great day, plenty of wildlife the canoes weren't really a problem and generally polite. It was a great introduction for the Mrs. I was convinced she would enjoy a day on the Wye and I wasn't wrong. She may be hooked!
5 Barbel, 1 Chub, 1 Other

Arrived at 4pm to miss the bank holiday canoes and found the river looking great. The fishing however was slow and we waited 3 hours without a bite. A flurry of activity in the last hour saw 3 barbel landed and 1 lost, plus 2 decent chub.
