Feedback & Reports

The river was quite low. It was around 27 or 28 degrees and very sunny. We started fishing around 14:30 through to 21:00.
We fished under the trees below the shallows where there appears to be a deeper section. I was using a running lead plus 12mm halibut pellet while Chris was using a cage feeder with the same bait.

We had a great day and this is a lovely stretch of the Wye with plenty of scope for future visits. The Fishing Passport and booking system works really well.

Steady going, another mid afternoon until dusk session. All caught on 10mm pellets. Nice to catch on the centrepin with a Wallis cast.

Second day on this beat,started at the lucky stone at around 11.00 ,5 barbel and 23 chub.
Moved at 6.30pm to swim below hut and had 5 barbel and one eel by 9.00pm.
Another two enjoyable days on this lovely beat especially as I didn't lose a single feeder to the tackle fairy and she left me a nice 60grm korum feeder in the margins!
Thanks WUF

Arrived at 9.30 after the 4 hour drive.25 degrees centigrade so a hot walk round the wood,had a walk round and started fishing around 11.00, chub first cast. The fishing was steady until around 3.00pm, after this things picked up and by 9.00pm 9 barbel and 28 chub had graced my landing net,by the time I had packed up,the walk back through the wood was quite dark glad I had the headlamp.

Another scorching day. The water below the woods was choked with Renaculus Weed and barely moving, so my only option was to fish from the rocks in the wooded area where the water was fast moving and in the shade. I started well catching Chub but the swim was very uncomfortable. Out of the blue at 14:15 I caught an 8lb Barbel, after which I lost my terminal tackle on the next three casts. I wasn't happy with the swim, so deciding I had done well in difficult conditions I packed up.

Another great day at this beat. Despite a 6 am start, someone was already in the Lucky Stone peg. I fished the next peg down, lovely and shaded in the trees all day. I had caught 29 chub and two eels before the only barbel of the day showed up! Light feeder and pellet. A switch to float fished meat rounded the day off with another half dozen chub. The guy fishing above me had a few barbel I believe. No complaints though, an action packed day.
