Bloody hot and not a lot of fish moving around. Didn’t have a bite in the top section even though some of the swims screamed barbel. I caught all my fish in the lower section after fighting my way through the undergrowth.. Even had a eel.

Very hot and very little rising, but beautiful location.

River low, water temp high not good conditions, went to reservoir instead. No fish caught. It would be helpful if more details about where to park and where to access the river was made available.

Bright sunny, water temp high. No fish showing all afternoon and in to evening. Tough conditions and no fish caught. Tried buzzers nymphs and wet flies in various combinations. Nothing seemed to work.

Fist of 2 days on the Wye, to hot to fish really - managed a couple of chub and 2 eels - really hard going though.

Conditions against us, boiling hot, river very low and clear. We fished too end of beat, in the woods, two other anglers fished lower down river, at the start of the woods, they also blanked, no bites whatsoever. The guide who looks after this beat is very helpful and lots of advice. Will go back when we have had some rain or gets cooler, great stretch of river and some good pegs, easy access to bankside, a good walk through woods to top end

four anglers on the water all blanked apart from some eels.
Very difficulty place to find and if it wasn't for a very helpful river keeper would have still been looking!
a lot of the stretch is unfishable due to high banks with few only a few swims cut out.
Quite a lot of slowish water probably better in the winter with a lot more water
