River very low. Fish caught on halibut pellet.Not much access to river. Disappointing that fishing from other bank is included in a £40 per year membership without such heavy restrictions on bait etc.

Fished from mid afternoon until late but a couple of very small barbel and a few dace were the sum total of the efforts of the three of us. It's the first time we've fished here and the very hot and bright conditions didn't help and neither did the canoes on such a shallow stretch, there were hundreds of them. We've been fishing the Wye for a good number of years now and this was the highest concentration of canoes we've seen in any area.
A couple of points worth noting. The "blurb" tells you that access is good and, in Wye terms, it isn't too bad but it's still quite difficult particularly for anglers who may not be so spritely on their feet, the path is undulating and steep in places and there is plenty of rocky terrain to negotiate. Parking is good and close to the river but the info provided fails to tell you that the car parks are locked at 8pm so if you wish to fish late at this time of year you have to move your vehicle and alternative parking is not so plentiful.
Not a particularly good beat and definitely not worth the £25 each that we paid.

Hot, clear water, caught on meat, others were eels.

We went, we fished, we left, with only one Eel for our troubles, but it was still a lovely day!

Enjoyable day although a tad hot limited spots due to conditions. My mate had his first barbel, and i had a first catching chub on free lined bread super sport. Beautiful spot more of the same today.

Had an early start due to hot weather and managed 3 Barbel before 9 am when things went very quiet, returned around 6 pm and caught a nice 4 lbs Chub and another Barbel. Fished towards the top of the beat.Barbel were around 6-8 lbs. Looking forward to returning here in September.

Too hot hitting 30 degrees. Fished several swims prebaiting each then resting for an hour. Two of the chub were in cracking condition and were well over 3lb.
Spanish armada of canoes came past at 2 separate intervals, all were very courteous which makes a very nice change.
Had a break of 2 hours during the midday as it was just too hot, lots of weed on the surface was a pain but it's called fishing not catching. Chub taken on pellet and feeder tactics.
Lovely to chat to the other angler on the beat which broke the day up.

Very hard fishing due to low water level and flow, plus hot and bright. One decent eel, no siogn of the usual prolific chub and barbel.
