Feedback & Reports

Fished an afternoon session. Started in the top field in deep water, caught two eels on pellet. Moved into new swim and my mate had a nice chub out the back on boilie.

Moved down stream into shallower water on croys and beyond with no action.

Finished at dusk back in the meadow, in the swim we wanted (new swim) there were two teenagers along with mates fishing. They stayed on night fishing as we left at dark (there two cars were parked by ours in the gateway of pump station). A little bit irritating, but I suppose kids will be kids!

We ducked in next swim up and I had a 9lb barbel on pellet and another large eel. Was chuffed. The river keeper is a sound guy, nice chatting, hope to meet again soon.

12 barbel to 9lb 2oz, plus a few chub.

Started at 11am the first swim - fishing hemp feeder with monster crab boile plus paste wrap. First and only bite 1pm landing a Barbel of 8lb 10oz. 3pm moved to other end of stretch and whilst checking other swims with out tackle - came back to find my bag had rolled down the bank and now floating in the drink!! Thanks to the couple in canoe who saved me from getting half naked and wet!!
Settled down in the last swim of the beat with no afternoon action at all. Moved again to the mid part near the extraction pipes about 6pm - caught a small chub about 3 lb at about 8.30pm.

It was always likely to be hard work today. River low and clear, weather cool and sunny, and drifting weed a bit of a problem. One barbel of around 7lb in the morning from halfway down Legg Meadow on a small pellet. Only an eel and a lost fish (probably a good chub) from further up in the evening. Enjoyable nevertheless. Will be back when we get some worthwhile rain.

Tried hard to get there in good time but got stuck in traffic everywhere!! Fished from 5pm till 8-30 and had 4 nice barbel from slower deeper section in first meadow.

Slow going this morning with only three bites which produced a good Chub of 4lb 6ozs and two Barbel, the best going 8lb 13ozs. Reading other reports suggests that evening may be more productive.

Plenty of late afternoon/evening barbel despite very low clear conditions, no chub today though.

Another great day on the Wye. 14 barbel to 9-14 along with a few bonus chub. All fell to pellet/feeder approach with the majority of the fish coming between 5pm and dusk.
Dont be put off by the canoes, we had bites whilst there were canoes going through the swim, although the 6 muppets in the two inflatable paddling pools raised an eyebrow!!

Quiet start on pellets, changed to meat and caught 5-1/2lb barbel straight away. Four other good bites but didn't catch any more, left mid afternoon.

Another beautiful day on the Wye. Caught 9 barbel to 9-4 and 5 chub between three of us. Heavy heavy canoe traffic until 5.00pm. Chub caught throughout the day with the barbel showing later in the session. All caught on boilies and pellets. Plenty of sewin and a couple of salmon jumping!
