Overcast and a good flow of water, but a brisk wind became quite a challenge. Fish were taken on small nymph patterns, and all safely returned.

Really nice and easy beat to fish, fished for 3hrs and only covered a fraction on the beat. Lost the best fish I hooked but had several over a pound and two nearer 2lbs. Fished the nymph for a while but most fish to the dry.

A lovely day fishing on my favorite stretch of the Wye. Terrible weather though as it rained heavily at times all morning and for some reason I always struggle a bit on the Wye when it's stormy. IdDid however manage to catch a few fish but never consistently in the same spot which is unusual for this stretch. I finished with 5 barbel and an eel. All of the barbel were between 2 & 5 pounds which I was surprised at as when I fished it last a few years ago the average size was between 6 & 8 pounds. Small barbel are a good sign though for the future. All caught on pellets or luncheon meat.

Overnight rain made the bank very slippy and the pheasant shoot in the next field made it a little noisy only to be compounded when lunch was served ON THE BRIDGE. How the other half live. Thank you wuf.
