a tragedy, the river is getting more and more overgrown every year, and the fish are getting worse. the creel is running out and paying almost £30 is pointless

Fished the upper end of the beat. Nice to see some weed back in the river.

River was a bit low but we still managed 50+ Chub with at least 20 in the 2 lb to 3.5 lb bracket and one Eel. Most were caught Wading Trotting Stick and Waggler on Banded Pellets and a couple Swimfeeder, Straight Lead and (Bouncing Luncheon Meat down River). One large ! fish lost would speculate a Barbel. A very enjoyable day. Would recommend this stretch.

Note a couple of Pegs are slightly steep as can be expected often on the Wye and if it gets wet can be slippery getting in and out river so be prepared, just in case.

50 Chub, 1 Other

River very low. Enjoyable day wading and running a float through various parts of the top beat. Lost a good fish possibly a barbel in a snag. Best chub around 3 pounds.

First visit to this stretch of the wye, a low fast section but perfect for trotting a float.
All fish caught using either banded pellet or meat.
Barbel to 4lb
Chub to 5lb+
Brilliant day with no stop action as long as I kept the feed going in.

With water levels lower than our previous visit swim choice was limited. Didn’t see the otters this time, but a 15lb salmon lay on the rocks of the second wier.
The canoes were a bit of a nuisance for an hour around 3.30, particularly one that was playing loud music, this spoils the experience for everyone including the wildlife. Why do the canoe companies allow this?
