9 barbel to 9lb, 1 chub and 3 eels (approx 2lb). Great sport on a scorching day when a swim with shade was essential.

Water very low and clear and temperatures scorching. Still managed to find some fish in the middle of the river on groundbait feeder and pellet. Best fish just short of 10lb but average very good about 7-8lb. Boats very much a problem but some good sights!!!

Only 1 barbel and 1 chub on what proved to be a difficult day which we put down to the low river and hot sunny weather.

Same swims, same tactics and same baits as two weeks ago when we caught loads of fish, but this weeks weather and river conditions were always going to make this trip a tricky one. Very pleased with end result. A great day and fantastic weather.

With the weather predicted to be 28c and wall to wall sunshine it didn't look to be ideal conditions. However fishing Courtfield it seems to always produces the results. Fishing down in the wooded area pellet and feeder approach produced 13 barbel plus a couple of chub. This was fishing from 8am to 6pm so not the most productive time of the day. It was wonderful to be fishing the river again. Although the river was very low the fight from these fish was fantastic. With this please be very careful and ensure they are well rested before releasing them back into the river. Especially with the high water temps too. The largest barbel was caught by A and was 9lbs 3oz, he also had the largest chub of 4lbs 7oz. Could have caught many more however the hot temperatures took it's toll and so we called it a day very early. Still the best beat on the Wye I believe.

Lower Courtfield, 7pm to 7.30pm. In shallows level with Little Willow a grilse of around 6 to 7 lb on small black/siver Flying C with one barbless hook. Fish hooked clean in top mandible and released in water. Next cast hooked and lost a similar size Grilse, it leapt in shallows and threw hook. D.M. confirms these certain to be part of July grilse run. River very low but good flow.
7.30pm to 10.15pm. Target large chub just below Little Willow seen on surface in the afternoon. 12 Chub to around 3lb on floating bread. Bites ceased so free-lined on size 6 hook very large sections of "common"! luncheon meat. Cast to mid stream, let out more line and let it settle near the bank downstream, does not snag and fish will take as it bounces down. 6 more chub, all well over 4lb and last cast a weighed chub of 5lb 11oz, not my 6lb target but well pleased. I assumed the size of bait used would deter the small chub. The last fish could have easily got half tin of luncheon meat in its mouth!

1 Salmon, 18 Chub

Started early in the meadow where the river was running sluggish and low. Weather was bright and clear. No bites all morning so moved down into the Wood, still no luck but had a useful chat with Don who offered some advice which I acted on, so spent the evening back up in the Meadow, where I managed five good sized chub and one small barbel the majority coming from the 'Pipes' swim. Thanks for the advice Don.

Fished Courtfield and took the advice of Don. The going was tough and despite the calm conditions, we managed 6 barbel and 8 chub, all falling to feeder and double pellet. Most catches were prior to lunch and things dried up after then with little bites and catches. Unfortunately we collectively lost a fair amount of terminal tackle, but still a great day.
