Feedback & Reports

Couldn't fish it because 1) Banks too steep and dangerous in places, 2) no attempt by Wye & Usk or land owner to cut out any swims, 3) Due to the very hot weather Streamer weed on the nearside bank made fishing impossible even if you could find some where to fish. I recommend that this stretch be ignored until some effort is made to make it worthwhile

Did not fish due to warm weather and temperature of water

My first time on this beat with temperatures high and water levels low. I fished from 11.00 to 4.00 and saw little sign of fish or fly activity. An early combination of Parachute Adams and DRHE nymph yielded a spirited 10" Brownie; but then I spotted the occasional Mayfly and changed to a Yellow Humpy. Whether I missed a small Brownie or whether it missed me is a moot point but I saw no more action.
It's not a good idea to try text the river at the Weir. You end up with nowhere to go unless you climb fences as the Turkey Farm is paranoid - probably rightly - about people bringing in infection.

Another good day on wyebank . Two anglers fished not one as stated. Twenty six barbel ( mainly small) six chub and one two pound eel . River very low , all fish caught in fast water and lots of time given to recover . Please remember if you are returning fish in shallow water make sure they swim off . We had plenty of fish but oxygen levels very low . Thanks w+ u

Second day on this beat,started at the lucky stone at around 11.00 ,5 barbel and 23 chub.
Moved at 6.30pm to swim below hut and had 5 barbel and one eel by 9.00pm.
Another two enjoyable days on this lovely beat especially as I didn't lose a single feeder to the tackle fairy and she left me a nice 60grm korum feeder in the margins!
Thanks WUF
