Feedback & Reports

A day of roving and trying to find safe access to the water in likely looking areas. The only accessible "swims" were to slow moving water and confidence was very low. One bite all day which I somehow managed to miss which summarised a disappointing day with no fish caught by myself. My angling companions faired slightly better but unlikely we would return to this stretch unless some swims were created for safe access.

Chub caught on various methods including 2 on trotted Luncheon meat at top of the Beat, looks wild and not fished
but would be worth looking at if you had suitable tools to clear the stinging nettles.
biggest at 4lb 11oz with 3 between 3lb 9oz and 3lb 15oz. No Barbel showing. 3 others were eels.

11 Chub, 3 Other

Well this being the start of our 2 days on the Wye, all three of us where looking forward to it and no better place to get it up and running then here at Fownhope. The fishing was not as good as previous years but we still manages to get few nice fish . M H 17 chub and two very nice roach, all from the far side of Hamburger Hill, all on pellets. As for S G he was fishing in the woods and had 7 barbel and 15 chub, again all on pellets. S M started in the woods had 3 chub then moved down to the first field and ended up with 3 more chub. The down side to the day was again see two other fishermen what they call village rights fishing even though there is a new sign saying passport fishing only this is not the first time this has happen to us so maybe when i book up a beat again we could have it at half price .
