Started fishing at 9:30am, two of us fishing, caught my 1st barbel within 30sec (7lb,8oz) followed one hour later by two more 5lb 7oz and 5lb 4oz, then moved to upper stretch. Caught four more between us all between 5lbs and 7lbs 8oz and missed one. Good location/access and swims to fish.

Fished the Rope Pool. Conditions hot and sunny and the river was very low. Managed to catch 4 Barbel, 5.5lb, 6.5 lb, 7lb and 9.5lb. All on Pellet and feeder. We have booked this stretch for tomorrow Wed 12 Sept, and will try another part of this stretch.

This was our first visit to the attractive lower stretch at Sugwas and we struggled to locate barbel in the snaggy and very clear water. Late into the evening we had a couple of mid-sized fish each to show for our efforts. I was a bit concerned at having a full sized bull for company in my peg but the old boy seemed friendly enough. I was somewhat relieved when he sauntered off to join his girls.

Second days fishing on WUF waters. This is quite a challenging beat but worth the effort although now the opposit bank is fished on WUF tickets this does put pressure on the popular areas. None the less we still had a good day landing 11 barbel up to 9lb, all caught on pellets and boillies.

9 Barbel to 9lbs. Fished opp Weir Garden. Caught on pellets and mini boilies. Fished 1pm to 7pm. Fantastic fishing, weather and scenery!

River low and clear. We eventually found the fish in the deeper water and landed a total of 7 barbel and 4 chub. Best barbel at just under 7lbs. All caught on either meat or pellet.

Out salmon fishing yesterday and spotted two of the biggest barbel I have ever seen! The barbel rod is going in the car this autumn! These two fish would easily beat the Wye record and probably push the 20lb plus British record.

First time fishing the Wye. Difficult conditions with the wind blowing straight in my face but never the less I had a good day on a beautiful river. I only had my rod in the water for about 3 hours but I managed a barbel of about 4-5 pounds and lost another using groundbait feeder with pellets and hemp and pellets or boilie on the hook, so a good first day and looking forward to the next.

6 barbel to 8lbs 3oz, all very good condition with no mouth damage. Legg Meadow swims with river at normal Summer level, fished into evening. Found several snags where before I found none.
