2 x barbel to 9lb on pellet from the top end of the fishery. Not a touch after around 2pm. Very muddy! Thanks again WUF.

We turned up to fish this stretch for the first time. Having read some of the earlier catch reports that said this was a difficult section to fish we were surprised to find this was not the case. The walk down from the upper car park area was a bit tricky due to the narrow flight of concrete steps so wouldn't recommend this access for the less physically able. We didn't check out the lower access as its on a 4 hour parking limit. Anyway the fishing was good, we had 8 barbel between the 2 of us to 8lb on pellet. It was a bit snaggy as usual for the Wye but not the worst we have experienced. We would return to this stretch in the future.

Beautiful setting, very peaceful and tranquil. Unfortunately no fish and didn't see any either. Nice day out though.

Three grayling caught on fly plus one small trout also on fly. Best graling approx 1.25lb.

Eleven grayling plus five of which weighed over the lb with the best over 1.5lb and four small trout. Everything else caught on fly. Lots of salmon showing. I will probably book the beat in the salmon season next year.

9 barbel between 7lbs 6oz up to 10lbs 2 oz. 4 chub up to 5lbs and 2 grayling.

Weather was warm and dry for a change. However the barbel didn't want to play very much. C caught a pb of 7lbs 14oz plus another of 5lbs 10oz. These were caught in the late afternoon. I had one earlier of about 5lbs. Slow going but the river was down and clear so not ideal. Nice to meet the two guys from Exeter.

The river was running quite clear today. I had a number of knocks and tugs during the day, with one barbel early afternoon, then three in three casts as the light started to fade. Biggest of the day was 9lb.

Lots of smaller grayling about today. Though there wasn't much surface activity I took nearly all the fish by prospecting with a small Klinkhammer. A couple of OOS trout were also taken on a small bead-headed PTN fished duo. I did see a couple of goosanders - something that seems to be happening more and more often.

2 rods fishing a good variety of pegs caught 9 Barbel and 3 chub, all on pellet feeder. A lot of pegs that have been successful in the past not so good on the day. River carrying a bit of extra water but fairly clear.
