Started at the very top of the beat, conditions looked good although a couple of inches higher would of been nice but colour was ok. Fished down the boards and just before the end bang a coloured 10lb ish fish . Fished down the rest of the beat, nothing else seen or caught. Glad to catch one

1 Salmon

A warm day. The threatened rain never materialised. Water level rose marginally during the day to .509 on the Ross gauge.
There were salmon showing but not taking. Only one or two canoes seen in the early afternoon. Lovely water. It would be a fabulous beat on which to hook a salmon.

We both had a great day on this fantastic part of the Wye ,a slight rise in river levels overnight made conditions ideal ,fished towards the top end of the beat from early afternoon onwards, occasional fish to start with but towards late afternoon the fishing improved ,fished with swimfeeders and 8 mm pellet hookbait ,lots of hemp and 4 mm pellets in feeder.Most of the Barbel were around 6-8 lbs with a few going up to around 9 lbs. Looking forward to returning to this beat. Worth noting the fact that I fished the same peg around a month ago and only caught 1 Barbel all day.

26 Barbel, 20 Chub

We expected to find the river very low, like the surrounding rivers, but it was a perfect height and with a welcoming tinge, and we were very hopefully, however it was raining and the river rose a bit and coloured up and by midday was no longer fishable.

Having retreated from the Irfon that had come up and coloured and become unfishable due to the mornings rain, we were pleasantly surprised to find the Edw unaffected by the rain.

Its been two years since i last fished this beat , and i was amazed how much its changed , the field section is no longer a field but a over grown jungle,River conditions didn't help either as there was a constant flow of cut weed coming down stream, never the less we had 8 barbel up to 8lb plus a chub between 3 of us , so that's a good day in my books ,

8 Barbel, 1 Chub

1 Barbel, 6 Chub, 1 Other
