Feedback & Reports

We fished on beat 3 close to the Salmon lodge as we were only fishing from 10am until 1pm as we had to make the trip home. I'm sure a few fish would have shown if we had fished into the evening. Another fantastic beat on the Wye, thanks to the Wye & usk for another great few days.

1 chub of 3lb 10oz caught late morning on luncheon meat.

Second visit to Whitney. Another lovely day on beat 2.
Had 3 small brownies all under a pound and my first ever grayling that made my day.
Water is low at moment. Not much rising. No sign of a salmon.
Great spot.

3 Trout, 1 Grayling

The river was low and clear and the fishing was difficult. One of us had a Barbel and I had three Chub, sadly the other angler blanked. Still, I can't think of a better location to have a blank so it wasn't all bad!

1 Barbel, 3 Chub

It was my first time on a river. Such a contrast from lakes. Whitney is a stunning location, excellent help from Terry. Hope to return soon.

River running low, took 11 barbel & 7 chub, all on pellet and paste. Biggest barbel 9lb 14oz. Great 6 hour session. All fish in excellent condition.

11 Barbel, 7 Chub

Beautiful stretch with spectacular scenery. We fished beats 4 and 5 which we found easily with the detailed map provided. Struggled on a low clear river but caught 2 Barbel late on in the faster water on halibut pellet on the feeder. Lots of accessible swims to try.

Ledger tactics with mixed pellet feed + halibut pellet hook bait.

2 Chub

Superb conditions, very low canoe traffic and the beat to ourselves but the barbel were hard to find. On our second visit we caught 2 barbel one of which was full of spawn. Back again in a couple of weeks.

2 Barbel, 4 Chub

Challenging day this time but managed 1 barbel just over 8 pounds and three chub. Lovely stretch as always.
