Feedback & Reports

Lovely beat but we think few salmon around. Saw one, moved none, caught none. Lowish, clearish water. Blazing sun all day and not ideal conditions but would fish this again in other conditions.

Conditions could hardly be better! How many times have you heard that this year?
Not a touch for us as we covered the water with a selection of flies and Mick's advice in our ears.
A fish seen at Vanstone.

No fish caught or seen, but spent a very pleasant day with Mick, who gave shared some of his great knowledge of lies etc. which should greatly improve my chances of success on future visits to Goodrich Court.

What a change... 24 degrees, not a cloud in the sky. The water levels have dropped and the water was crystal clear. Great conditions for fishing. The only slight issue was that there weren't any salmon to be seen, let alone caught! The beat is in great condition and I will return again this year.
A great day, in beautiful surroundings. This year I accept that salmon will be rare at best.

Two of us fly fishing for Salmon, with resident gillie Mick. He did a great job of guiding us to all the fishy famous hot spots. Lovely well maintained fishery. Water flow good gin clear, but no sign of any fish. Bright hot sunlight did get a little bit over tanned. Will definitely do this again. Off to the upper Wye tomorrow. We are staying at a beautiful self catering accommodation called Riverside Cottage at Lower Eason Baset. It is well located for fishing lower middle and upper Wye. No drive more than 40 minutes. Our wives are having a good time visiting many interesting places each day.

Finally, the conditins were almost perfect, one salmon of about 8 pounds sea liced and one sea trout of about 2 pounds.

1 Salmon, 1 Sea Trout

Weather much better for fishing, but nothing happened.

Condition good even though water level a little high not one fish showed very wuite, but had a good take on a fly in the vanstone and after 20 minute fight managed to land a 21LB clean cock fish.

1 Salmon

Few fish seen, but even today(bank holiday) a lot of traffic on the water!
