Nice beat, found some fish in the fast water. Very slow, all fish caught on swim feeder with pellets. Lots of cars up and down getting ready for the country fair need some rain.

River very low and stagnant. 2 anglers fished but only one 3lb chub caught.

Another wonderful River Wye session. Arrived at 6.15am to another baking hot start. The river looked very low, clear and not great for fishing, but we love the scenery here and the fishing can be very productive. I did the usual of dragging the base of the car along the entrance and nearly ripped off my exhaust! Really needs sorting that bit! The farmer had trimmed back the field but left the high grass along the entry track which would have helped to improve the fishery no end. We started as usual targeting the faster flow areas as there was little flow else where on the beat. Things started slow as expected and it wasn't much before 3pm that the first signs of the barbel feeding could be seen. Things were sporadic but as evening drew in the bites became more frequent and I bagged 8 fish to just under 7lbs and my fishing partner on his first ever trip to the Wye had 3 barbel to 7lb 8oz.
Another great session here and we both look forward to our next installment! All fish taken on CBS River Monster Boilies and Feeder techniques.

First time fishing in the region. Talybont is a great place to fish, but the weather was far too nice for fishing with strong sunlight and only a gentle breeze. I didn't see any evidence of fish life all day. Fished all around the southern end and near the pillars on the west bank. I would really appreciate any local advice on where/when to fish and what tactics to use as I'd like to return and catch something in this beautiful location.

Fantastic days fishing. 11 fish caught between us in 4 hours. All caught on worm ledgered with poly balls to keep worm off bottom. Fish are very small though.

As previous comment excellent day all caught in worm.

Lovely afternoon in a very scenic stretch of the Wye. Caught nothing, but that was as much my bad fishing as anything!
