Feedback & Reports

Water up 2ft. Managed 2 barbel 6-7lbs and 2 chubb 4-5lbs. Testing conditions but a good fishing shelter on the beat to get away from the elements. Great atmoshphere between the anglers there, salmon and coarse. Saw salmon moving through beat that didn't appear to be stopping.

River 3 feet up according to the EA site and absolutely ploughing through and featureless at Foy Bridge where the drizzle soon became heavy rain. Four barbel to 7lb plus a few chublets, a wbt and an eel before rain stopped play. Noted the recent clearance & access work - esp on the left bank - making the swims here very convenient if that's what you're looking for - car to water in 2-3 mins.

Nice water only fished for a few hours in the morning. 5 barbel, 3 to 7 pounds on pellets and meat. River a little high and fast fished close in. Good directions and service, thank you.

Fished Legg Meadow for three days from Tuesday until Thursday. River conditions not ideal, very coloured and running 4ft over normal level. Had 29 barbel between the four rods averaging around 7lb with two going to double figures, the biggest being 11lbs 2oz. Also managed around a dozen chub, the biggest at 5lb 6oz.

A very late booking due to heavy rain. The stretch we had booked we elected not to fish. Visited Holme Lacy and found no-one on the beat. Rang the WUF and after they spoke with Colin the Ghillie we were able to fish from about 1pm.
River high, coloured and pushing through. Needed a lot of lead to hold bottom, but by fishing the bottom of the beat we managed 6 barbel and 2 chub to one rod and 8 barbel to the other. The biggest about 9lbs - all the fish were in excellent condition although a couple were a bit lean and obviously recovering from spawning. All caught using heavy feeders and pellet.
Despite the poor conditions and the inclement weather a productive day.
Many, many thanks to the WUF who made every effort on our behalf so that we could fish, and Colin the ghillie for his advice and assistance as always.

Me and a friend fished Sugwas on the previous day and although the water level was high we had a good day. We stayed at the Grafton Travel Lodge in Hereford which was clean and comfortable with the staff freindly and helpfull. Unfortunatley when we got to the White House beat the river was way up and raging though so we did not fish, went and had a bit of lunch instead. This was the first time either of us had been on the Wye and what a stunning river it is. With the ease of booking a beat we will be back soon for another go.

13 barbel to 9lb on pellets.

Second time here and again I was murdered by the Chub, fished 3pm until 8pm due to the fact the monsoon conditions earlier in the day dampened my enthusiasm along with everything else, again limited access to pegs due to treacherous banks and higher river level, dying to see this beat at Normal Summer Level.

The conditions were ok. We arrived at the beat at 9am and had rain rain and more rain. For such a long beat there are very few pegs and it is very over grown. It really could be a very nice strech. We had 2 barbel, 1 chub and one eel in the morning, nothing else till 4pm. Then we had 4 barbel each smallest 2lbs the rest 5 to 8.5lbs. We had a break and came back at 9pm and had a further 2 barbel each, total for the day 14 barbel, 2 chub, 1 eel and one dace river rising in the evening.

16 Barbel and 19 Chub caught between all 4 anglers. Excellent days fishing, although it rained all day. The banks were very slippery and could do with improving. We can't wait for our next visit to the Wye.
