Feedback & Reports

Our first time at Wyebank. River was a bit lowish, looks like a good fly water. Notable difference with Middle Wye as this has bed rock which can trap bait feeders. Met the fishery owner who gave some useful guidance, many thanks. Tried Halibut pellets but not a touch, changed to luncheon meat and we were in. We only had a small tin so went to the local shop who helped out.
Barbel were very strong for their size, two chub were over 5lb. The take was very tentative, wait for the rod to bend and you had lost it. Hold the line and strike on a tremor and your were in. Lovely day, thanks to Fishery owner and W & U. Roger & Callum from Tring & Ludlow.

Beautiful stretch. Access along top of river great for driving long. Some very steep pegs along top section. Water level very low at moment. Saw several barbel in deeper sections bu couldn’t catch. Caught some lovely chub up to 5lb 6oz…and 2 large eels. Will return when levels are up

Chubmania!!
A dozen fish from the fast water on a heavy Avon style float then moved near the steps and cast a 8gr pellet waggler over the far side for a fish every chuck for the last couple of hours.
Great to be back on the wye.
Thanks wuf.

River was low, could do with some rain. Barbel didn't show but Chub fed all day and kept us entertained, most fish in the
2.5 to 3lb. bracket, several 4s and one 5lb. fish. Fish taken on meat, pellet and the majority on trotted flake .

Only one angler fished another beautiful beat on the Wye and Usk passport although rather exspensive Ended up fishing lower end below suspension bridge caught nothing on feeder so switch to the float with immediate impact caught steadily dropping down stream to pick bigger fish Ended up free lining meat catching 18 chub to around 4lb

Lots of chub, taking the bait as soon as it hit the water. Lovely beat and is my favourite place to be. I'm back here in August with my daughter and I cannot wait.

Worried about the erosion of the upper fields which will make fishing them very difficult in the future. Field to the left of the steps had no bank access, there will only be a handful of safe fishable swims unless someone takes some action.

Canoeist very courteous apart from a group of paddle boarders who parked on the island and were not only loud but also threw large stones into the water behaving like children.
