Weather conditions were bright and partly overcast and the river was pushing through.
Fished for the Chub with liquidised bread and flake and managed to land 3 with a further 3 lost. Fished the slack water on a roving basis.

River was pushing through pretty quick. We had 4 chub and a grayling. Beautiful part of the river.

Arrived at 2pm - conditions look good but nothing at all.

I could not have wished for better conditions for this time of year, river about 2.5 feet up fairly clear and dropping back. The back end of a really mild spell and a lovely part of the river. I was not disappointed, five barbel 7lb, 7lb 8oz, 8lb 4oz, 8lb 12oz and a 10lb 4oz. Thank you Don you have a great beat here and I will be back next week to have a go for the salmon. I saw two fish in the river when I was there and if I get as much luck with the conditions again you never know!

River was low and had a little colour, very sunny day and struggled for bites. One pike nearly landed on dead bait early, nice 5lb chub saved the blank for one of us caught on pellet.. Packed up at 2.30pm as we all had too much sun. Lovely day to enjoy the river and peacefull surroundings, thank you Ian for meeting us early on your day off.

Blank. Couldn't find them today. Saw quite a few goosander ducks on the beat.

6 chub to 4lb 6oz and 8 Barbel to 7lbs all caught on maggot feeder and then boilie wrapped in paste at dusk.

This has to be one of the best looking beats on the river Wye. It was like a spring moring when I arrived and I caught 2 lovely Barbel of 5 and 7 1/2 lbs pounds with one lost. Had to leave early to catch the rugby but many thanks to Adam for his advice he told me I would catch and also to the WUF for the great work they have done improving swim access on this lovely beat (not that it was that bad then) it is a river dont forget.

10 chub, mainly on Sweetcorn with a couple on meat. Largest 4lb 2oz, one more over 4 but all over 5lb. Not a bad day all round.

Cracking day with river in good order but I couldn't find a fish in any of Don's recommended spots or areas I figured out for myself. The river was up a couple of feet and Don had suggested the conditions were right to try for the chub and dace that occupy the bottom pool, fishing maggots on the stick from the steps near the lower car park. I didn't try it but I should have. Still, the sun shone and all was well.
One more go before the season ends, I think.
