Feedback & Reports

Only second time booking through WUF so still a bit unsure of the Beats. In the end plumped for Whitney court and arrived just befor dawn. Sun came up to reveal a stunning location and was very satisfied with our choice. Day couldn't have started better with both rods landing a 4lb chub within 15 minutes however I then didnt have another bite for approx 3 hours and only then once I had moved swims. Father in law was catching chub regularly. Decided to do a bit of spinning for pike for the first time ever and to my amazement hooked into a fish on my first cast. However what was revealed when it came to the surface really was not prepared for. A salmon of around 10lb. This totally outweighed the fact that my father in law had left me standing on the coarse fish front. No other fish on the spinner so returned to the feeder and pellet to land another 3 chub. No barbel unfortunately but my most satisfying days fishing ever. A big thanks to the staff in the booking office for helping me to choose our beat and a massive thanks to Ian for his advice and time to walk the bank.
P.S They really should renovate the converted stables for letting out. I would certainly hire it for a weekend

Actually booked for salmon fishing and fished for a couple of hours to practice my casting as it's been a while. None caught but did see two jumping. Switched to coarse fishing and caught 1 chub 4.1/4 Lbs and one barbel 5.1/2 Lbs both in perfect condition caught on hemp and spicy sausage pellets .

1'9" falling, clear.
Perfect height, and a few salmon showing throughout, but no joy!
As always these days-difficult/impossible to cover all the lies.
1X 1lb Brownie in superb condition.

11 Barbel between 6-9lb. 8 chub 3-4lb.

FISHED FROM AROUND 2pm UNTILL DUSK, MANAGED TO CATCH 6 CHUB & 4 BARBEL BETWEEN US ALL TAKEN ON PELLET, EVERY FISH IN SUPERB CONITION & COLOUR. CANOEISTs NO PROBLEM AT ALL, THANKS TO IAN & ALL AT WYE&USK FOR ANOTHER ENJOYABLE DAY ON THE WYE .

1 barbel and 1 chub.

We met Ian Boney's friend Mark at The Boat Inn who took us down to the beat. He didn't rate our chances as the river was the lowest he'd ever seen it. With neither of us having fished a river at all for well over 15 years, it's safe to say confidence was low.
We were very pleasantly surprised to catch 19 chub between us ranging between 2.5lb and 5lb in a six hour session. Pity we couldn't find an elusive barbel but we'll be back to try again for sure.

Fished from 2pm until dusk. River level as expected - very low with a bright sun & hot conditions. We both fished the pellet, JB managed 4 chub and 2 barbel while I managed 2 barbel and 5 chub. All canoeists were very good.

Thank you all at the Wye & Usk for your booking services & for the great stretches & scenery of the Wye on which we fish.

2 chub caught one off 2 and a half pounds and one of 3 and a half pounds, bailiff Ian very helpful, water was well down, very picturesque.

10 x chub 6-9lb. 3 x barbel 3-4lb
