Feedback & Reports

Very difficult conditions, river was very high and a lot of walking to find fishable swims, in the end 1 of us fished beat 4 and 1 in beat 5/6, it was a glorious day and the river was dropping slowly, we managed 1 bite each 2 chub caught around 4lb and 2lb, seen an otter, red kites and some very friendly cows, very enjoyable day apart from only 2 bites all day, alot of leaves debris as well, but you expect that this time of year. booked on for 2 days but we were unable to fish the 1st day after walking all the beats.

The water was very high so unsafe to wade. I'd like to have another go in the summer.

Stunning stretch of river, but water felt close to winter temperatures. One barbel at 9lb 8oz..and one eel. Delighted with the barbel which was in perfect condition

River up around +2.2m, so fished downstream of the wood. A few swims in the first field, but in the second, could do with one or two more swims being cleared. I think there was one at the top near the gate, then a double swim towards the bottom of the beat.
3 Chub caught all very close in, due to river really pushing through. Biggest was just over 4lb.

A lovely looking stretch, will be back when river has fined down a bit.

River pushing through & up, walked the whole beat dropping in a few swims, current too strong to fish anywhere but the margins so settled in bottom swim with the big slack. Stayed until sunset when a nice Barbel & a couple of Chub put in an appearance which had a liking for Robin Red pellets. Lovely as always to be by the Wye

Decided that I had to get out on the river after 6 weeks without fishing.
River up/rising and pushing through, absolutely no chance of a fish, but it was good to be out in the autumn sunshine.
