3 anglers actually fishing, Low water levels on arrival but rising a couple of inches over the day from previous rains. Disappointed to find half the beat has no bank swim access to fish. Our first visit to the Wye for thee days.

1 Trout, 11 Chub

Always thought todays fishing would be hard after the rain the night before but as this is 1 of my favourite beats I decided to give it a go.

On arriving I decided to fish the top of the beat as I’ve not spent much time there in the past. It was tough going first thing as the water was a chocolate browns but I persevered on. After a few hours the river clear a little and as I fished my way back down the beat I connected with the first fish. Not a monster by any means but a nice tug on the line. I then continued down and managed 2 reasonable trout from the slower water below the White House.
A great day that shows little prospect after the heavy rain yesterday evening.

Lovely beat
Some fish rising around 11am but sadly below where I was fishing. Another jumped out in front of me while having my lunch!!
Not a huge amount of insect life. Finished the day fishing quite a way below the house where there were some rising but again not very many. One launched itself out of the water after a parachute adams but didn’t actually take the fly
Alas nothing for me today but would highly recommend fishing here
