On arrival discovered that vehicle access to the river requires driving around the LEFT hand-side of the field to get to the fishing hut parking area.
Caught plenty of chubb including some nice size fish and a nice size eel early on in the day.

It all kicked off at about 8pm. All on emergers or CDC Spinners. Sorry to say, 5 takes did not get hooked up- too easily distracted!. They seem to like white CDC. Best to move away from the access points below the footpaths as these are popular with dogwalkers. PLenty of room for everyone.

Fish were taking a small parachute Adams dey. Trout were small while grayling averaged 1 lb or so. All fish released.

Fish taken about even stevens on meat and bread, meat ledgerd and bread on the float. All save two taken from the faster water in the wooded area, hard to find a bites anywhere else. The other was a rather handsome Eel, if you like that sort of thing. The Barbel continue to be elusive at Fownhope.

We tried pretty much everything very little moving on the surface, and not luck with nymph or droppers. Very unusual but still adequate water in the river.
Fishing passport is the best thing since sliced bread. So easy to use and great water

Absolutely love this stretch of the Wye. It has everything from the fast paced shallows to deep gulleys
River very low and not in the best shape as it’s desperate for a downpour however free lined spam saw me trip up seven barbel biggest only around 6lb but great fun. Four chub also joined the party before the fishing slowed up during the afternoon.
Most kayaks were really accommodating and gave me plenty of space.
Fish taken from the top end of the beat

Really fun evening on the local stretch. Couple of clonkers to a 1.5lb ish. Bridge section came up empty for once though. Great session.
