Feedback & Reports

I fished the lower end of the beat for a short afternoon and evening session using pellet and feeder. River was nice with a little color from recent rain. Had a great afternoon taking four barbel to almost nine pounds, and five chub.

Dull day, dull black/gold 1" copper tube fished on intermediate tip took both fish with some induced movement required as water very low but much cooler than previous visits. First midweek visit to Wye and no canoes. A very pleasant day despite the rain.

This beat is not of the quality described in the passport and is fairly limited in extent. The 'walkway' is largely broken up and a large part of it has fallen in the river. The river bed is boulders not gravel making wading difficult, and the beat was poorly maintained with the steps from the car park overgrown with brambles.
Despite the recent rain the river is as summer level and there was no sign of fish.

A difficult day on this water with heavy rain for several hours making the pathway difficult. One of us fished the end peg all day for 6 chub and 1 small barbel while the other used roving method for a less than successful single chub. River came up several inches during the afternoon.

1 Barbel, 7 Chub

Wet and windy. Nice rise at lunchtime, Pale Wateries and Blue Winged Olives I think. 5 bites to klinkhammer, BWO dries but none to hand.

No bites and nothing caught all day. Fished beach, croy and fast water in front of island. Bait hinders elips pellet, luncheon meat and corn. Hooks size 14, 8lb hook link to 12lb main line, swim feeder. Second rig size 9 hook, power pro hook link, 12lb main line. Weather fairly breezy and pouring rain nearly all day. River low and clear. Lovely spot will return.

River low and clear. Very few swims fishable in my opinion. Fished with pellet and feeder.
