Grayling of about 14 inches on weighted pink bug. Lost/ missed a couple on the dry. Trout all took the dry. Fished red tag, grey "bumble"(can't remember proper name for it!) Fishing was hard work, very little showing but a great day all the same. Oliver Burch was great guide for the day.

Difficult day with the river low and clear. Tried a number of swims but only managed a pike of 11lbs to Eric. Very heavy canoe traffic throughout the day - much of it very inexperienced and noisy.

Stunningly beautiful venue. River low. Long, hard day's fishing with only one chub between us both.

I fished all day without a nibble then at 4 o,clock I had a 2 foot twitch and landed a 9lb barbel. In the next 2 hours I had a 7lb barbel, three 6lb barbel and a 4.5lb chub.All caught on boilie wrapped in paste with scolded pellet in a feeder. Great stretch of river. I had a great day

Harder going than expected as I had a very good day here last year. Fished Masses Creek without a touch so moved down bekow the island and found grayling in the pool there. Could only touch them on wets, March Brown being the most successful though I missed one on a dry. None of the fish exceeded 10", they seem to be a bit smaller this year.

The river was low and there were lots of leaves on the surface making fishing difficult at times, but otherwise the conditions seemed reasonable. We fished hard all day using every technique in our repertoire, including deep nymphs, duo style with dry and nymph, and dry fly on its own, but the return at the end of the day was one modest grayling each, caught on dries, plus one out of season trout. Another angler on the same beat with a guide was also struggling, so for whatever reason it seems that the Wye Grayling were not playing ball that day.

River clear and low. Nice looking stretch, beautiful surroundings. Caught one chub early on, stick float maggot. Swim was dead for rest of day, no sign of any small fish or anything showing on the surface. Absence of fish life, no ripples etc. Fished a couple of hours into dusk and caught 6 chub between us, 2-4 lbs.

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!
