Feedback & Reports

Another bright and hot day. Feeder fishing accounted for all the fish. Best barbel was estimated at 8+ with a couple of the chub close to 4lb.

13 Barbel, 4 Chub

Good 9 inch trout caught in deep pool by bridge. Other refers to Dace. Very hot and bright. All fish caught in shade. All fish returned quickly and safley. Pleasure to be stood in the water. Lunch in the Bell even though they have pinched our car parking. They admit its not there land as they cannot serve food at the tables ! However still a great day fishing.

Heard lots of sea trout jumping but they are not easy to catch. Just managed one fish on a Black and silver needle fly, which was returned.

Fished shaded swims in the woods for a few hours on a very hot day. Hard going with few bites. No fish landed although a couple were lost.

Not well but tried to fish but saw none.

No fish caught, although trout were rising. Also some dead sheep lying around the place which wasn't ideal. A bad omen perhaps? Water levels too low, will be back again when the river conditions are more favourable.

Beautiful beat but conditions are awful. No water. Hot. Bright sunshine. Flotilla of kayaks. I had a four day trip to the Wye planned but have cut it short and travelled home lunchtime today as I don't think these are conditions to fish for barbel - it won't do the fish any good. But will be back to this beautiful beat.
