Feedback & Reports

A difficult days fishing with rain scattered throughout. But perseverance paid off with a 14lb pike in the afternoon on the float and a 12.04 barbel at dusk on a pellet baited area. My friend and I both enjoyed the beautiful scenery and first trip to the Wye. We will be back soon. Many thanks.

Good days fishing. Slow in morning with 1 barbel caught, picked up mid afternoon after moving swims with another 4 barbel and 2 chub caught and losing 2 barbel. All caught on the feeder with boilie hook bait!

5 Barbel, 2 Chub

Difficult day with the river low and clear. Fished most of the available pegs in the car park field. One barbel exactly 10 lbs plus 2 small chub.

1 Barbel, 2 Chub

Very poor 3 days of fishing. The river was clear and with a drop in temperature I am sure the fish were hibenating! No real bites apart from 2 chub. We were using pellets and feeders, and saw several kingfishers.

1 Chub

All fish caught in the fast water on nymphs. Water level still low, good wading.

2 Trout, 7 Grayling

Slow going due to the cold north easterlies and water level dropping. But we did have a few fish on pellet. We have fished Sugwas before but this time 2 of us tried above the orchard. We enjoyed our day despite the slow fishing.

River conditions were clear and low, with some concern that no small fish present. Disappointed with the fishing. Used stick float and feeder methods, maggot and fine tackle. One graylng to show for it and I've chub from luncheon meat on feeder. Maggots not even attacked by minniws etc during the whole day fshing. River appeared devoid of fish life with nothing at all showing at the surface.

Fished from 11-3 ..nothing doing until 12.30 despite searching carefully with nymphs and then an olive hatch brought some rising fish. 4 Grayling from 12" to 14", Trout was around 14" and fish came to Para Adams,Griffiths Gnat and Greenwells all size 16. Glad I'm catching more Grayling than Trout on this beat, it was the opposite this time last year.

Arrived slightly despondent from the day before but found this stretch rather more enticing. Fishing with various nymphing techniques failed to produce anything, a switch to Grayling Steel Blues and Griffiths Gnat brought five hard fighting and very quick recovering Grayling between 8 & 14-15 inches from the right bank bend at what I think would be an island in higher water a couple of hundred yards up from the bridge. Not a huge bag I know but they saved our weekend ! We both thought a return to this beat in the trout season could prove interesting.
