Mild with light winds. No surface activity and all fish came to nymph patterns. Shared the river with several kingfishers.

A perfect day on the Wye with good flow, a little colour and a mild, cloudy, still day. I caught barbel at regular intervals throughout the session on pellet/feeder. Most were in the five to seven pound range with the largest at 7lbs-11ozs.

Mild day , no wind, water slightly high and over the end of the croys but very fishable with heavier feeders. The down side was the water temperature at 44 degrees F. Only 1 barbel each plus several chub best 4-10 to Keith on pellets.

I failed to find any of the shoals or indeed have any luck nymphing but was compensated towards the end of the day by two 12" grayling on a Klinkhammer, plus one OOS trout. Fantastic to see a large cock salmon repeatedly leaping in the largest pool, flushed up red and ready for his salmon-business. Owner as friendly as ever

Good day. Was going to be a short session so decided not to move about and trust that the fish would find me. Weather was grey but comfortable and river carrying a little water and plant debris. Stuck with feeder and pellets and had a few bites spread over the session. Again a warning to visitors - access through the farm to the river requires opening and closing two gates and a clipped electric fence and the area can be muddy so be prepared with wellies and some protection for your car footwell otherwise you'll coat the pedals and mats with a heady mix of liquid mud and cow s**t.

Only caught 1 small perch. The water was a little shallow and we didn't see much activity. We were trotting maggots.
Gaining access to the water was hampered in the northerly direction by live electrical fencing which made getting to the river difficult. It was better in the southerly direction and there were less brambles and other vegetation blocking access to the river from the bank.

River very high, lost a barbel at about 3.30. Then just as it was getting dark caught two. The first one about 5lb. The second was a pb of 7lb 15oz. Used feeder with halibut pellet. Most enjoyable day, even if the weather was cold and windy.
