A beautiful day with warm sunshine and with the river falling we thought we were in for a good day. But it was tough going with a few sporadic fish taken throughout the day. One barbel at 71/2 lb and 3 chub - the best going close on 5 lbs.
A switch to trotted maggot bought a few small dace midday.

1 Barbel, 4 Chub

New to this beat. River fast and high and wading quite tricky in places. This is a beautifully maintained beat - someone has gone to a lot of effort to make it as safe and accessible as it can be. Very much appreciated.
Took me most of the day to work out the best spots for trout. 3 brownies taken but quite a lot more interest missed by my hamfisted fishing. 1 really nice grayling later in the day.

A few rises in the morning very quiet in the afternoon. One 8" trout on a black klinkhammer.
Lovely beat. With a pub at one end if all else fails.

A fantastic day. Thank you Wye and Usk.

Fished by the hut, with hindsight the water level was probably still a little too high for this particular swim. Eight chub caught to approx 5lb. One barbel hooked but lost.

Hard day after the first flood of the year, the beat is looked after well by Colin all fish on pellets and swim feeder.
