Feedback & Reports

Lovely water, but no sign of fish rising and a cold blustery downstream wind convinced us that 1 ½ hours was more than enough. Water temperature 47F. We caught one decent grayling (around the 2 lb mark).
The Wye valley and the river were spectacularly beautiful and both (part-time) anglers thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

5 grayling to 15" caught on a dry fly CDC Quill.

River looked in good condition with a slight peaty colour. Caught 8 OOS BT between 6 and 12" and one grayling about 12" on tugsten head red tag spider point or pink tungsten head PTN dropper. Lost 5 or 6. The point fly was tied on a jig hook and this seems to help avoiding snagging as it bounces along the bottom. Access is challenging along the road section but worth the effort once I'd located the fish. Didn't get to end of the beat as my waders sprung a leak and my very wet leg and foot eventually made me give up. This seems to be a good value beat - thanks as always W&U.

5 rainbow trout on worm.

I caught two trout. I enjoyed fishing, it was very beautiful and relaxing.

Blank. River was up but fishable and very clear. Tried meat and pellet with no luck. Got very wet at dusk.

4 rods. 34 grayling, best were several near or on 2lb. (A B got 20!) We all caught trout (c.20 between us) and saw two salmon in pool/glide downstream of the Chapel.

A quick couple of hours in the drizzle on the middle beat before heading home produced 3 x Grayling to 14ins. The Cammarch Hotel waters are an absolute delight to fish, even for the average fly fisherman like myself. Reccomend any time of the season, thanks to Kathryn and Alan @ Cammarch Hotel.

Didnt arrive until late morning when the filthy weather had already made the river high and coloured. Persistent rain only made matters worse and I left without a touch after about three hours. But definitely worth another visit in better conditions.

Three of us fished for Pike with baits and lures but did not catch anything. One large Pike was lost at the net at the very top of the beat. A very nice part of the river and the WUF service was great.
