Not many swims further up beat, caught fish on meat and pellets. Will probably try different beat next time as struggled a bit, though conditions were not idea (bright and clear)

Good conditions. No fish hooked.

A good day with a nice flow on the river. Chub to 4lb through the day but just the one barbel.

River conditions were excellent, with water levels good and weather fair. Some rises first thing. Began with a dry fly and took a number of grayling and one trout on the central pool. Then switched to a team of spiders on a long leader, on the the advice of guide Oliver Burch, and took the majority of grayling and one larger trout weighing approx one and a quarter pounds. Lastly finished off with czech nymphs and took the remainder of smaller grayling.
This was the first time using the foundation, and I have found it a great service, with a huge selection of waters to choose from. Next time I'm in the region I will definitely be booking beats through the foundation.

2 Trout, 10 Grayling

Arrived mid-morning to find the river running clear. This, combined with the low, bright sunshine made it difficult not to spook the fish. Concentrating on the broken water and deeper shaded pools I winkled out four fish of about 6” and one splendid specimen of 12”+. All came to size 14 gold head PTN or GRHE. I didn’t venture beyond Mallhollam Bridge.

5 Trout

2nd day on this beat the weed coming through had reduced and we had a far better days fishing. I finished with 6 Barbel from 7lb to 9lb 10 oz and Martin had 3, best 10 lb. All fish came to meat baits fished with heavy feeders. We fished several swims along the beat and caught from them all.

9 Barbel

Arrived mid morning and decided to fish the top section.
Fished mainly with pellet and caught 3 barbel with the biggest being 12lb 5oz, a PB on the Wye. This particular fish had a large, what seemed to be growth, on one side so not sure what that could have been. The other 2 barbel ranged between 8 & 9lb.
A lovely part of the Wye with good access and parking, will definitely return to this beat.
