1 chub caught only weighing. 3lb on a cascade. 1 salmon seen rise at 6 in the evening. Very nice spot but did not see many fish moving.

First time that I have fished Wyebank ...what a stunning stretch of the Wye. Fishing with my god-daughter Gemma on her first barbel trip. Started fishing at 10.30am and she caught her first barbel at 10.32am....about 4lbs and was absolutely thrilled. We continued to catch spasmodically over the day, finishing with 6 barbel to 10lbs 7oz...with several lost and 8 chub to 4lbs 8oz. Successful method was feeder-fished pellets. Very many thanks to Don Macer-Wright for his generous help and information. Needless to say Gemma wants to know when are we going barbel-fishing again!!!

No fish caught but one lost after a short encounter in Ford Stream. Conditions sunny and 16degree Celsius. size 10 Thunder and Lightening

No catch , but a very nice day.

Due to poor sport on the previous day, our group fished another day ticket water, this is by no means a reflection on Caradoc, and I am sure we will return there in the future.

My first time on this beat, which is very diverse, giving plenty of choice. I fished at the top end of the fishery, using pellet and feeder, with great results, twelve barbel up to almost nine pounds and one decent chub. I also lost three in a mid river snag, before I worked out how to avoid it. A great days fishing on a really nice stretch.

Water very low now, concentrated on the pools using beadheads, only managed a dozen fish in the 7 to 12+ inch range. Major shock in one pool, got one to above twelve inches to hand. Without doubt the biggest I've landed from this little brook.

6 trout and 2 parr but no salmon seen or caught. Largely overcast, river came up 6" or so and then dropped back. Couldn't have asked for more other than a fish or two.
Lovely beat.

Very windy all day. Little fly and few rises. LN Tenkara-ed and DC fished conventionally. Had just a dozen fish between us, mainly grayling to about ten inches. Fish mainly taken on PTNs. Surprisingly disappointing fishing in the dubs in the woods where some more clearance in the upper part of the wooded section would help on a number of fronts. Access there far better than it was a year ago though!

Fish were in a bit more of a feeding mood today. A total of 18 barbel and 2 chub were caught. 15 of the fish came from within the Wood and included fish of 10lb4oz and 10lb8oz and also a PB chub of 5lb3oz for the captor.
The other fish came off Legge Meadow and included a PB 10lb10oz barbel for its captor. Yet again groundbait/pellet was the winning combination but to be honest given the previuos days results, we were now concentrating on this method.
