Feedback & Reports

River almost back to normal, fished meat and pellets both on the feeder and Stick float. A bite every chuck at the end but only one brief encounter with a (Guessing) good sized Barbel that decided he didn't want to see me. Caught 12 Chub from 1 1/2 lb to 4 1/2 lb. Great days fishing, I will be back !

12 Chub

Much better fishing today, river up a bit more and nicely coloured. Started the day off with 2 Barbel and a 5lb Chub. Nipped back to the car for something and when I got back to my swim there was a man sat in my chair wearing a pearly suit. I asked him where he had come from and he replied "down sarf". He told me that he aspired to catch a Barbel off the River Wye, and that he had heard that I was a master in the art of catching Barbel. I decided to take this "Padawan" under my wing and show him the ropes! Joking apart, myself and my new fishing buddy "Rich" had a great days fishing and plenty of laughs along the way. Between us we had 11 Barbel and 6 Chub and it was great to help a fellow angler fulfill his wish of catching a Wye Barbel or two. Great days fishing with great company. Hopefully I will be back again soon when the river is back to normal levels and maybe catch a few Barbel on the float.

11 Barbel, 6 Chub

Tough day, raining, pegs slippery and tons of weed dragged out after every cast. Managed a couple of barbel so very happy although I put my waders on and forgot that my boots were not under the cover of the brolly. Boots full of water! Roll on tomorrow.

Good morning, but as the river dropped it went quiet from about 3pm. The “other” was an eel.

7 Barbel, 1 Chub, 1 Other

River level constant with good flow. Sunny day but not to hot. Fish caught throughout the day. Silkweed still a problem but not as bad as the previous day. All fish caught on luncheon meat except one Barbel on pellet. Biggest Barbel 7lb 5oz, Chub a good average size of 4lb. The 3 others were Eels

4 Barbel, 8 Chub, 3 Other
