One about 8-10 pounds that I thought was mine before a distance release. Then contact with another fish taking line bringing the clutch to life before everything went slack again!

Nice venue, weather was mild and overcast. River level was falling after recent rain. Fished the right bank. All fish came to pellet feeder tactics.

This was the first time I've fished the Wye for barbel and overall I'm really impressed with the quality of fishing, the ease of booking and the really friendly bailiff that greeted me. It was really nice coarse fishing for barbel while a salmon angler was wandering up and down casting a fly in all the pools - not something we ever see in deepest, darkest Oxfordshire.

Very pleasant day, beautiful surroundings. Not many available swims considering the length of the beat. There were several at least two non wye usk anglers fishing the far bank.

Cracking day - lots of tugs but no fish. Still a top day. I will be back for more and want to see what else is on offer in the area.

Fly fished mainly with a little bit of spinning. No joy today, but and enjoyable days was had. A couple of fish showing. Back agin soon hopefully.

Fantastic day. 7 x barbel, 4 over 7lb with the biggest 8lb. 3 x chub between 2 and 3lb. All on feeder with hemp and pellets.

River had a tint of colour. Very nice stretch with great access to all swims. Barbel caught early and late in the day with fish to 6lbs on the feeder and halibut pellet. Chub very obliging when we swapped to maggot feeder mid day whilst barbel had stopped feeding. Had fish to 5lbs and fighting fit.

River was a little up but looked good, weather was mild and mostly cloudy, river looked perfect. All fished with feeders and mainly pellets and some meat. After an early barbel of about 5lbs and a good 5lb 8oz chub and a few missed bites, the encouraging start to the day went very quiet. 2 barbel, both 8lb 8oz, followed late in the day along with another chub of 4lb 4oz.
We all enjoyed our day there but not really the beat for 4 anglers to be honest. The one concern was a pile of lager and cider cans along with a hot dog container just left in one of the swims. Can't believe any decent angler would leave that and hope our European friends aren't visiting this spot.
Look forward to visiting the Wye as soon as we can again.
