Great place to be for the glorious 16th.
2nd visit to Wye, much more water this time.
Fishing once more excellent, took a while to get going but plenty of chub, mostly 3lb or over, best 3-14 and a 4-14 barbel.

Unexpectedly tough day when conditions seemed spot on. No luck all morning on feeder and trotting. Tried some slacker water in the afternoon and managed to tempt 4 chub on the gb feeder with various baits. 2 of the chub over 4lb.

River looked perfect but unfortunately not a sniff from a barbel. Chub were caught throughout the day and ranged from 1lb to 4lb.

Water was pushing through quite hard today so need 4oz feeder to hold bottom. 5 fish in the morning including the biggest barbel that gave a real good account of its self in the current. Barbel were 10lb 2oz, 8lb and 5lb 7oz. Chub were all in the 2lb bracket. the smallest barbel came around 2pm. Left at 3.30pm as 3 hr drive home. All came on pellet feeder, not a twitch on meat.
