First time at Foy Bridge. Beautiful setting and nice looking water… 225 meters on either bank so enough to go at… parking right next to bridge was ideal. Right hand bank (over the bridge) only 2 accessible swims really. One had a small beach which made it comfortable and that’s where all fish came out of.. left hand bank probably 6 swims with a couple rather challenging to fish from… best for waders so I’d say essential to make use of the whole fishery. Standard barbel tactics, 4 oz feeder to 3ft hooklink and mix of pellet, cocoon and meat… all fish came to Robin red meat..
Alive with bird life… kingfisher paid several visits

nothing to report couple of taps on the tip when switching to maggots but it was just coming back with them sucked to death from the fry.

Caradoc, 12 oC, sunny, wind 14 km/h NNE.
We were fishing Links Run at the bottom of the beat. Sitting on a shingle bank, we were casting downstream into a shallow, fast-flowing run over gravel. To our right, there was a deeper slack, and the fish were holding right along the crease between the slack and the main current.
Bites came thick and fast. We started off using a legered 14 mm halibut pellet, and later on, tried rolling meat, which worked brilliantly too. The river was steadily rising throughout the session, and by the end of the day, half of our bank was underwater.
We finished the day with two barbel (6 Lb 14 oz, 7 Lb 14 oz) and four chub (up to 4 Lb 8 oz), capping off an absolutely amazing day on the lovely River Wye.

Not a bite for 5 hours worm and spin i think the water level is affecting it or hasn't been stocked recently. Be back next year now
