A nice day to be beside the Wye even if the stiff breeze made it feel on the cool side. Left for home happy enough after catching 2 decent chub and a nice barbel.

Tricky day in very low water levels, the huge beds of streamer weed also mean that some swims are almost unfishable. Canoes were a menace as ever on the Wye, had to rescue one canoe after it capsized and drifted off without its inhabitants for which they were very grateful. Despite the tricky conditions a truly wonderful stretch of river to fish and a very enjoyable day.

Excellent days fishing . despite arriving late ( 1pm) I was into the chub immediately from the swim in front of the hut . 4 casts produced 4 chub , probably around the 3 lb mark . i caught chub steadily for the next couple of hours with the occasional smallish barbel ( 6-7 lb ) . then there was a lull of about an hour from 1500 - 16.30 when it went completely dead , nothing , zilch , picked up again and caught more chub and barbel till i packed in at 19.30 hours. most of the chub were in the 3-4 lb range and the barbel were smallish until my last cast when i had a near double figure barbel..strangely none of the barbel were caught on meat but quite a few of the chub were . river was low and fast with floating weed being a problem. all of the barbel were caught using hinders Flatz pellets..

A good day on the river with all the usual sights and sounds including a military helicopter trimming the trees. All fish came to luncheon meat on the bomb. Nothing came to feeder and pellet.
