Feedback & Reports

Booked to get on here in the summer primarily due to the massive head of good chub (booked way back in Nov 2021) only for it to fall during the low oxygen closure. This was the next available for more than one person. Was looking great up to Tuesday evening but came up a metre overnight - good on other WUF waters but apart from the bottom swims (the island one we couldn't get to) it's a bit straight when really high. Steve in the bottom swim had 3 barbel 4 to 6lb. Paul had a 4lb chub halfway down the straight and I managed to snare a late barbel of 6lb by the boat. Groundbait feeders and an assortment of hookbaits. The heavens opened at 1400 to leave us drenched with one of the worst drives I've ever had to get home. We will do it all again though...

4 Barbel, 1 Chub

Nice to back on this stretch of the wye after a few years not fishing it, weather prior to are trip was not in our favor with lots of rain bringing the river up and a lot of debris downstream. Well i say debris trees between 20ft -30ft were regular flowing past. The fishing was a challenge bites hard to come by but did manage 2 good size chub fishing in the slack calmer water.

2 Chub

2 Trout

Fish came early morning. Weather got bad toward afternoon so packed up.

1 Barbel, 5 Chub

The river was up and rising. Rain showers throughout the day. Just one barbel and one chub

No fish today, raining, raising river & lots of debris coming downstream but still enjoyable just being on the Wye.

Shortened session interspersed with heavy/torrential showers, river level rising slowly, passing otter not interested in sharing brolly. Chub, just short of 5lbs on PLM.
