Tough few hrs in the middle of the day on this fairly wild beat - though better access than last time- thank you. Owner and Wye and usk and luggsmouth owner so helpful in sorting out parking and track issue - now much easier. For red bank parking use the corner on the track at the ds end of the beat.
Meat or corn on float and feeder for the chub. Lack of weed on the beat though there is a bit at luggsmouth.

First half of the day roaming the whole beat picking up the odd chub from various swims trotting on the pin before settling in late afternoon in to a swim on the lead. Plenty of chub, ranging from 10oz to a little over 3lb. Average around 1.5. An angler fishing the top half looks to have been using large barbed hooks judging by the mouth damage on 4 chub caught. Couple of bonus barbel around the 5-6lb mark on the lead finished off a good day's fishing.

Just an evening ticket. A lovely beat, water slightly cloudy after recent rain. Access was OK despite an electric fence and the enclosed herd of cattle. (Electric fence proved not to be on, after persuading my wife to test it!) Fish rising on the Ashford bend and then much later on Blockhouse where access is trickier. Fish taking dries, Grey Wulff and small Klinkhammers and later small beadhead pheasant tailed nymph, all barbless. Caught a couple and lost at least a dozen, I found it hard to make them stick in the faster water and most takes were on the far bank.....excuses. Hope to return
