Blanked. Fished groundbait feeder and pellet, tried a piece of peperami on hair also. I snagged up on weed a fair bit and lost a couple of feeders. I am a fairly inexperienced angler so put my blank down to that. Tried a few swims but should have watched Deano’s Diary on the stretch before going as I wasn’t sure how to fish the island swim. Having watched that again now I realise I would have probably found barbel there. Beautiful piece of river, will be back! Thanks land owner and Wye and Usk Foundation. Loved the day despite no fish. Learnt a lot.

Fished spiders and nymphs, started at the top of the beat, didn't realise that access to the lower stretch was so far. Fished the lower stretch in the afternoon, didn't see any rising fish although there were masses of flies coming off the water. Unfortunately no fish caught.

Nice to see a bit more water on the wye,4 of the barble were under 2lb and 1 around 4lb
Not the biggest of fish but nice to see some young ones

5 Barbel, 3 Chub

Only a couple of bites, but no takes.
Fine summers day, rivers still low due to lack of rain and overgrown. Used a 7ft 3wt rig to avoid the jungle growth.
