Always a gamble booking this beat at this time of year, just wanted to make amends for a dismal display back in April ! Alas recent lack of rain had left this stretch of river wanting. The faster water was very skinny and the deeper water was nigh on at a standstill. No hatch, no fish seen or risen, easterly breeze steadily increased and drizzle turned to heavy showers, I got the message.

After many years of fishing I decided to introduce my wife to the joys of angling! Not the weather we had hoped for but that's the first rule of fishing! After a quick casting lesson on the bank Mrs E was soon throwing a decent line out and contacting the odd fish. Only a couple of little ones landed but we had a fun day and plenty of stories to share over dinner in Hay-on-Wye that evening.

Very tough going. Some nice swims but fish not responding well at the moment

River was on the up with plenty of colour. Managed just the one barbel before the heavens opened. Lost 2 good fish that came unhooked so felt a little unlucky. Main method was feeder and pellets. Fished the main swim half way down the left bank.
