Its a long walk to the top of the beat from the parking and when you get there its is very overgrown. We saw a few fish move but they looked stale and no takers.

6lb grilse, fresh but not sea liced. Caught on fly (small Orange Ally's Shrimp, double). Full floating line.

What happened to the weather, even cooler in the morning. The barbel and chub didn't want to play ball. The river had cleared and was back down to a very low level.
Needless to say the barbel eventually came out to play. Nothing huge but to 8lbs 12oz. Everyone in the party caught a barbel so happy days. It was cold during the day and the barbel didn't show much interest until the evening. A great day and everyone enjoyed it and will return for sure.

10 Barbel, 6 Chub

Spent just a couple hours but no sign of anything moving. No fly life and no takes on nymph. Not easy to access water due to steep banks and vegetation. Water too deep to wade in many places.

Arrived to find the river running low and clear. Not what I was hoping for but the fishing was ok! It took a while to find the fish but ended the day with 5 chub between 2lb & 5lb on pellet and luncheon meat. No Barbel.

One small barbel before I fell in. Banks steep in parts, did well to get out! Full kit on plus big coat. Thanks to K from Cornwall for helping me dry out!

5 small brown trout, all caught by my brother, biggest 0.5lb.

A tough day, a small chub 2 - 2.5lb on the 2nd or 3rd cast then nothing. Not too many safely accessible swims on this stretch but tried most of those available. The other angler on the stretch for the day went in and was lucky to get out from where he was fishing. We managed to recover most of his kit with the help of a canoeist but his iphone was the worst for the experience and will probably not recover.

Fished Wyebank for 2 days. River level was fairly low, started fishing around 6.30am. No fish until boats came through around 10am, then a steady flow of fish with a few quiet times. Method of fishing was a large open feeder and bait consisting of ground bait with spicy hemp casters and crushed up 16mm boilies with a small boilie on the hair. Over the two sessions I had 17 barbel to 61b and 3 large chub to 41b. Many thanks to WUF for this great fishery.

17 Barbel, 3 Chub

Weather was good, water was low but a lot of fish rising. I caught 3 rainbow trout and a lot of others were catching fish. A good day all round.
