I blanked but my brother managed a 3.5 lb chub and a bonus 6lb salmon (kelt). Both were taken on double maggot. The chub fell to feeder tactics but the salmon took trotted maggot and gave a good account of itself on a 18 hook and 3lb hook length.

7 barbel (6 for me :-) ) and 3 chub. Water even lower than last report. Barbel still to be found tightly shoaled in about a 40 metre secton of the beat. They tended to shy away from the angler wearing the Chris Yates tweeds, though the ducks were fascinated by him for some reason.
Pre baiting the spot where we found the barbel had little effect as nearly all were caught in the pool upstream from where the bait was (only 30 yards or so). Big 22mm pellets and pellet feeder were by far the best tactic. Lost 3 Barbel, one when my despised Shimano baitrunner decided to not surrender any line due to S**t clutch system, and a big fish just clean snapped a newly tied 8lb hooklink, on a through action rod.
Biggest fish 7lb 4oz.
Biggest laugh, my fishing partner being loved by every duck in the whole stretch. He even moved from where he caught the 7+ barbel just to get away from them, but they love him long time and followed him to his new spot. :)
Lovely day again, will be interesting to see where the fish go when the levels rise.
Thanks WUF for keeping this stretch in top condition.

Fishing in the wooded section and starting fishing at first
light I can only describe this as a real red letter day on this fantastic stretch of Wye using a pellet feeder with elipse pellet and paste on the hook. Within the first hour 2 barbel and 2 chub came to the net finishing the day 15.30 with a total 10 barbel with wieghts between 7 and 8 pounds and 15 chub between 3lb with the largest going 5lb 1oz.
After 37 years of barbel fishing this ranks up there with the best and one other great part of the day was meeting Don a real good guy.
who realy cares about the fish and this river.
