All fish caught on the ledger. One eel. Very sunny. River was low and clear. My friend had never been fishing before and now he definitely wants to come back!

Booked for 5 but only 4 fished. Unfortunately too hot, too bright, water too low and too many canoes. Not to mention the wild swimmers. At times it was like a circus. Not a touch all day but then 3 barbel between us at the last knockings. We know that in the right conditions Courtfield can produce good sport but the beat owner doesn't appear to make much of an effort. No one is asking for manicured banks but it wouldn't harm to strip the access path and the amount of litter in the woods section is a disgrace. There are much more pleasant places to fish on the Wye where you won't see a bit of trash. A clean up is needed.

As yesterday, had to wait till the evening for the action to start

No fish all day, very hot and bright sunshine, nothing moving, even into the evening.
Pellet, boilie approach on the ledger.
Always another day.
Lovely place to be nevertheless, some might say #rubbishanglers but that was disproved the next day at Holme Lacy 3 with totally different weather conditions.

Lovely venue to fish but didn’t get the barbel I went for. Switched from pellet to maggot mid afternoon and landed a few Chubb and bizarrely a pike around 6lb. No action at all from barbel so put it down to low river level and gorgeous weather.

Another hot sunny day. Arrived mid afternoon and started fishing around 4 o’clock with pellet and feeder.
Had plenty of fish in front of me as the line was twitching constantly. But the fish weren’t that interested in what I had to offer them, so I was pleased to end with three! Great stretch of river if a little overgrown and access would be tricky in wet conditions.

This return and the one before it are for 2 anglers CT and PH. Gin clear river - needs some water badly. Least number of canoes day yet on the lower Wye. no more than a dozen or so canoes all day. Extremely tough day here at Courtfield. The only take/bite all day was 1 eel which fell to CT on the meat
