The river had risen overnigh twith a nice colour so a good day looked in prospect.I fished near the top of the beat and in the church field.5 barbel with 2 lost and 1 chub was he result of a very pleasant day's fishing on a very nice part of the Wye valley. Fish caught on feeder with pellet on the hook.

River was in spate about 2 feet higher than previous day etc, due to the rains etc no fish taken in the morning session as pools etc were frothed up and detritus around etc. Lovely morning tho, will return to your wonderful river. Barrie Cooper

Great venue.

Another very nice days fishing on the Wye, river was well up compared to the last few trips we've had, there was a lot of weed coming through but fishable. All fish fell to feeder tactics, and all fish were in very good condition. Was nice to meet Colin who showed his expertise with catching a nice salmon on his 2nd cast!!!!! .... A good day!!!!

We fished through the day with a long break for lunch. No real sport before around 7 pm. Very sporadic rises in the morning and managed a single trout on a black penned fished upstream. The evening was fast and exciting with fish freely rising in faster broken water. No rising fish in slower water. GandH sedge lethal fished upstream through faster runs. Largest fish to around 1.5 lbs. Grayling equally active. Might have well started fishing at around 7 pm but this is the most beautiful river to spend time on always holding new surprises.

6 Trout, 2 Grayling

Beautiful location unfortunately, never caught. Just a couple of issues I like to point out - the swims are very dangerous for the angler, access being one and the steepness makes it difficult at times. At Middle Hill Court my brother actually went into the river and managed to to scramble out luckily enough because being further down the bank I didn't hear him go in. This is just to inform you of the difficulty we had so this end up with someone drowning. This did not spoil our fishing on your beautiful stretch of the river and will definitely be coming back,thank you again for a wonderful couple of days.

After a weekend of heavy rain we were met by a coloured and rising river. Debris washed down by the strong current proved problematic, and we spent our time fishing the slower water between the overhanging tree's/snags. Overall a cracking day on a picturesque stretch of the River Wye, already looking forward to our return.

Fabulous day on one of my favourite stretches. Day started badly with a stinging wasp attack but soon picked up. Rising river brought the Barbel out to play. Bigest 10lb 2oz, 9lb 7oz, 9lb 4oz, 9lb 3oz, 9lb 2oz to mention a few. Numerous eights. Boilies with groundbait feeder tactics did the damage. Great beat, thank you Wye & Usk will be back soon
