After thunderstorms yesterday, and some of the heaviest rain I've witnessed whilst fishing today, the river was rising (6" in the afternoon) and orangey- brown.

One of us winkled out a few chub from just one spot under a tree. One of us tried deeper, shallower, slower and faster water but failed miserably and and blanked...yours truly!

A nice beat...a bit featureless at the top end..no where that really screams fish..but plenty of fish able swims..Great sport fishing a rolling bait through the fast shallows..all barbel around 5lb..corn and pellet...all the chub coming on meat.

Dusk till dawn one small chub.

Lots of tiddlers. A nice quiet stretch. I cleared vegetation to a few spots but much of it is only suitable for those of good balance and who are happy fishing in fairly uncomfy positions.

Tough few hrs in the middle of the day on this fairly wild beat - though better access than last time- thank you. Owner and Wye and usk and luggsmouth owner so helpful in sorting out parking and track issue - now much easier. For red bank parking use the corner on the track at the ds end of the beat.
Meat or corn on float and feeder for the chub. Lack of weed on the beat though there is a bit at luggsmouth.
