Good fishing fish on the float up to 5lb

15 Chub

Great beat for access with steps in many swims. Low and clear but much better looking than this time last year. No visible streamer weed but did pick up the odd bit on the hook. Charlie fishing the middle of the right bank with meat on the waggler for 12 good chub to 4-12-0 and lost 2 barbel. I fished the fast water on the left bank on the feeder - corn better than meat and pellet. For 11 chub and 3 barbel to about 7 lb . Fished 9-3.30 as had to get to the football.

After tackling the (in)famous hill we set down in a swim just upstream of the Lucky Stone. The river was generally low and clear but we were able to fish 2-3 lengths out on a ‘crease’ between flowing water and fast flowing water. Using a mix of feeder and lead, meat and pellet, the chub came steadily: only one barbel of 7lb 7oz that surprisingly didn’t put up much of a fight. Chub ranged from 2lb to 4lb 11oz and looked as if they should have weighed more (thin after spawning??) it was a bit of a tackle graveyard, losing feeders and hooks to rocks (used lighter line connecting feeders to rig. Went and fished upstream of the hut into the evening, was slow though started to come alive post 7pm. Caught one eel here. The Wye remains a favourite place for us, never a bad beat, though some swim access improvement would not go amiss.
