Excellent stretch of water, 3trout on nymphing then 3 trout and a couple of graling on dry fly , great day can't wait to go back.

6 Trout, 3 Grayling

We all caught barbel on legered pellet in the fast water throughout the day despite the sunshine and absolutely hordes of canoeists (the most I've ever seen on the river, but it was a summer Sunday, so can't complain - and some of them even provided some entertaining moments). Fish were caught up to 5lb, with all the largest ones caught later in the day when the canoe traffic had died down. Only one chub, and no fish seemed interested in meat, which was tried occasionally as a change bait.

50 Barbel, 1 Chub

Water low, clear and very warm, all of the fish taken on pellets. A very enjoyable day.

River level very low with little oxygen. It was always going to be a struggle on a very hot and sunny day.

The river was low and clear. Fish were only caught early am and late afternoon

Just a few hours on the river before the drive home after our week on the Wye. Worst time of the day to fish. No barbel tempted, just a couple of chub and five lovely eel. To sum up our week, it's been terrific. Fished 6 different beats and enjoyed them all. The wildlife as usual always adds to the enjoyment.
If you are in to numbers we had 110 barbel between the two of us and plenty of chub also.

Looking forward to returning already.

Very difficult day on a low river and a very humid hot day, tried different methods but could not find the Barbel. Just one caught and two small chub. The wood stretch is very snaggy and we lost half a dozen feeders.
Note: very disappointed when arrived at one of the cribs to find at least 30m of fishing line on the croy and loads of rubbish which can only be from a fishermen as the rubbish was packaging from fishing related products. I took all this away but feel just had to mention my disappointment.

WUF note many thanks for removing the rubbish. What can we say that hasn't been said many times over?

First visit to this stretch, plenty of good swims to go at. River low and clear, caught 4 eels and 1 barbel on meat and feeder. Think they should have w&uf fishing signs up to make it clear its private fishing!
