Didn't fish due to dog injury

14 lb cock fish this morning from the Little Kitty on a GP.

1 Salmon

Water high, fast and dangerous. Basically unfishable but I gave it a go to no avail!!

No fish caught. River a bit to high to fish the whole beat.

Water was high and dirty, but first time on the river fishing for salmon, so too keen not to fish tried a couple of fishy looking spots, if there is such a thing in that much water. Then bumped into a guy from Cardiff way fishing at the gutter, who was very helpful, explained how to fish the gutter when the water is good, told me to try lower down. Tried down by the church/ chapel, to my surprise a coloured hen fish of 11.6 lbs took my offering and made me a very happy man. First time salmon fishing on the Wye and rewarded with my first fish !!!!. Let the blank days begin ????.
Also thanks to Chris at sportfish for his help.

Firstly, what a beautiful place Fownhope is. Rolling hills autumn colours in the trees and rocky pools full of fish! We made our way over 'heart attack hill' (the view and fishing is so worth it!) and both started the morning very well catching steadily all morning until just before lunchtime when the river started to rise VERY quickly! Bringing down with it constant rafts of weed and debris, rendering feeder fishing almost impossible and Putting a halt to the bites from then on for the rest of the day which was unfortunate because I'm almost sure we would have caught a lot more fish, that's fishing for you! The fish were all immaculate as per usual on the wye and I even managed somehow to catch a Gudgeon fair and square on 8mm pellet! Fantastic day however, again in beautiful surroundings and wildlife, can't wait to come back up to Hereford soon!

Thank you again wye and usk.

Chris and Steve.

first time fishing on the ithon, very nice stretch of of water and easy wading throughout. conditions not too good to start off with (high and dirty water)but soon dropped down 6" and cleared out a bit. fish difficult to find but i was very pleased to end the day with a very fat 17" grayling .
