Great venue, well worth the £5 return taxi to the fishery. Its a walk! 8 barbel and 6 chub all caught on halibut and feeders. The water levels are very low and the sun was a nightmare. Most catches came in the morning and late evening. Best looking fishery we have fished and we have fished plenty of Wye and Usk Foundation.

We had a great days fishing with four barbel caught 6am - 7am then quiet until 2pm with 2 two barbel in 10 mins, six in total, same swim. Chub caught on bread when not fishing for barbel. All barbel in fantastic condition and between 6 - 9lb. Never saw a person all day but loads of wildlife. Had to leave for wives unfortunately at 5.30pm so missed a bit!

All the fish came from the beach section, 2 barbel in the morning and the rest in the evening all on halibut with feeders. Father in law had a great day fishing after I had baited his swim up. He had 9 fish in 9 casts and the last fish was a barbel of 9lb! Spooky!

Windy, hot and sunny with river low and clear. Beautiful location and the hill going down to the fishery is not nearly as bad as previous reports suggest. The main problem is the lack of swims you can access. I'm quite happy to bash my way down the bank Jungle warfare style but I'm sure there are a lot of anglers that would prefer easier access and a greater choice of swims for their £15 a day. The Croy swim at the top of the fishery looked great but was too windy on the day so my Dad and I fished one of the slower deeper swims in the first meadow. I had one chub of about 3lb and a nice Barble of 8lb on cage feeder and pellet. Dad just had one small chub on trotted bread flake. During the day we spotted a Kite, Peregrine, kingfisher and Buzzards. Lovely spot with great potential just make sure you travel light!

Up to get on the bank by 6.30am hoping to catch an early feeding spell. Should have stayed in bed! Eventually caught my first fish around 10.30am, a nice Chub at 4lb 1oz. Fish came slowly after that throughout the day. Seemed to be no chance of getting them to feed but every couple of hours one would turn up. Andy Murray, the scenery and the wildlife all made this a memorable day as well. Ended up with 4 Barbel and 2 Chub. Barbel were 7lb 0oz, 6lb 2oz, 5lb 9oz and the finale was the best of the two days at 8lb 8oz. The second Chub was around 2lb.0oz. As always thoroughly enjoyed myself so thanks very much to the Foundation for the access to the fine fishing. We have nothing to compare down this way.
