2 x Chub caught first two casts, then nothing caught all day. Tried various swims with different baits but alas the fish were not interested.

Coloured, dropping river. After hard rain and first frost, first and second fields below Orchard have great swims, top area in woods, very disappointing, none fishable.
Should have done better, will do on next visit.

After never ending weeks of rain I put a phone call in to the ever helpful Don the night before. He said all but two swims were fishable and see what you think when you arrive. If it's a bit iffy you're more than welcome to fish Courtfield as no one was booked on it.
When we arrived we were greeted with the first frost of the year and knew then it was going to be hard. We decided after inspecting the swims that we would try Courtfield instead. Flood water isn't a problem as some of our best days have been in high coloured water - you've just got to try and find some slack water. Anyway, we found 2 swims to fish but apart from a rap round bite in the first hour and a lost fish to a sunken bush, we never had a touch all day. We chucked the kitchen sink at them - pellets, all different sizes and flavours, meat, boilies, paste wraps, corn, short and long hook lengths. It wasn't to be but thats fishing.
Don said with the falling temps and water temps droping we would probally struggle and I think with the frost that finally did it, but as usual we enjoyed the day out and on to the next one.

Spent half the day in search of pike dropping a deadbait in 3 likely slack areas & same areas again later in the day without any luck. Tried an hour lure fishing, no luck, just a follow to the bank from a small pike, better luck next time maybe? River was in fishable conditon given the amount of rain we've had. River banks very very slippy so do take a spike & rope with you on your next trip. Many thanks to Colin for the chat, river conditions & information he gave me, also to the Foundations booking service. It's so easy.

River slightly risen, some colour. Nymph used. Cold 2-3C, rain most day. No fish rise, no sights of tales, only few ships and crazy little pony observed my misery. Will check later this month again. Thanks!

We had booked a 2 day trip to the Wye a couple of weeks previously and traveled up from Portsmouth as we usually do. As such we have to take what ever conditions prevail on the day. The river was very high and fast flowing. We checked out the swim in front of the Courtfield which (as advised by WUF in a previous catch report) had some slack water close in. We then checked out the Meadow area and found 3 or 4 swims that also had fishable areas close in. As there were two of us we decided to fish here. Impossible to hold bottom out from the bank due to the flow and debris coming down the river. I caught a barbel of around 5lb on pellet within the first hour so all looked promising. My friend lost a fish around 1pm. Rained all day pretty heavily, we packed up about 2pm wet but not defeated! We will be back again.
Thanks to Denise and Tony at the Jovial Colliers in Lydbrook for looking after us again.

River very high and charging through after recent rain, rose 2-3 feet during the day, far from ideal and mostly unfishable by dusk. A few swims at the top of the beat (upstream) fishable at a rod length out in slack water. One barbel of around 7lbs, and two fish lost.

1 Barbel
