Feedback & Reports

It was nice to be able to fish this beat in the Summer for coarse fish. Fished the Mill Pool but only managed 3 chub to 4lbs and missed a couple of bites, all on luncheon meat.

1 chub (3.5lb) and a minnow. 1st time on Wye, found it difficult to find good "fishy" looking spots (water levels very low), Paths marked on map from the hut had overgrown. Also did not want to upset landowners by trampling vegetation down to waters edge so ended up being rather static in a couple of spots. Still will learn more over next few months.

Last minute decision to try this stretch late evening, excellent choice. Pleasant evening with broken cloud and sunshine, slight breezy, plenty of fly life. Fished on the dry all evening, with a olive spent mayfly taking 5 brownies, ranging from 0.5lb to 1.25lb.
Large brownie around 3lb taunted me for some time, but resisted the temptation to switch to wet / nymph. Heavy rain arrived at 9.30pm so called it a night, can definitely recommend this stretch!

We fished on and off all day with 2 barbel and a chub for our efforts. Static and roving approaches, mixture of baits - the barbel just didn't want to know. They spawned in April so unless they have had a second round of it then it was inexplicably quiet. Lovely to be back out bait fishing on the river.

2 x trout 9 and 13 inches, Grouse and Claret and Cochybonddu. Another cold and windy evening.

A pleasant opening to the season. Great scenic venue. 3 Rods caught an equal mixture of Barbel and Chub throughout the stretch. Thanks to Colin for his feedback.

Fantastic little beat - a dozen chub up to 4lb. The barbel are there if you can get through the chub.

Barbel,chub,eels all caught on various baits and methods. The balsam has established itself well. A lovely time had by all. Special thanks to Martin.

Three sea trout caught on a small silver stoat, largest about 18 inches, (2lbs ish). All released. Great fun.

Nasty downstream wind. No fly No rises. 3wbt, all small. 2 dace,and 2 salmon parr. All on nymphs.
