Feedback & Reports

River a little high but fining down after rain. Caught six barbel one chub from swim by hut, all caught on pellet feeder.

Arrived about 10.30, River high and coloured. Carried all my tackle downstream, passed another fisherman who had already caught two barbel. It was very slippy towards the island and a little too difficult to carry the tackle so settled in another swim, very quiet, caught 1 barbel, about 6LBS a beautiful fish.

Colin appeared from nowhere and recommended a swim a little further upstream, he even helped me carry my tackle - a real gentleman and a wonderful man - Thanks! Set up there, had a few bites and by close of play caught 2 Chub and had my line snapped striking at a clonker of a bite.

A wonderful day's fishing, would have been wonderful if the river was down a little. Would definitely return. Thanks to everyone involved.

21 barbel to 8lbs, approx 30 chub to 5lbs. Fantastic days fishing in great surroundings, all caught on pellets and sweetcorn. Many thanks to Colin Richardson for puting us in the right spot!

Arrived at 9am river up 2-3 foot & coloured which was a welcome sight. Had a wander around & finally decided to fish at bottom of beat. Fished for a couple of hours without a bite due to flow & the amount of weed coming down, I was re casting every few minutes. Eventually gave up & decided to move further upstream, finally settling in just below Old Boat Pool.
1st cast produced fish within 5 minutes & the action then continued all day till I packed up at 5pm.
11 barbel to 9lb 40z plus 1 chub, I also lost 2 fish in the weed, both felt decent. All fish caught on pellet, not really bothered too much by chub, weed was a slight problem though.
River was dropping off through the day & losing some colour.
A few canoes came down, all extremely courteous.
To finish, what can I say, a marvellous day on a beautiful river, salmon crashing around me all day, outstanding scenery, peace & quiet, perfect!
Many thanks Wye & Usk & last but not least heartfelt thanks to Colin for his invaluable advice & local knowledge.

2nd day on the beat, the water had come up about 3 feet and racing through, also a lot of weed which has been a problem the last few days, rain and very windy made a difficult days fishing and we gave up early with 2 barbel and 3 chub.

1 rod fished near the hut and only managed a small Chub, the other rod made the long walk to the bottom pegs to earn 6 Barbel and 6 Chub for his efforts.

40 Barbel over 2 days from the bottom of the beat. Colin made us feel most welcome and was very helpful with swim choice.

2 rods fished for 7 barbel and 16 chub caught on a variety of meat and pellet baits

First day of a 3 day visit to the Wye, Neil and I caught 40 barbel to 8lb 2oz & 17 chub, with most of the fish being caught from the last few pegs, all on pellet. WE have fished the beat before and caught all along the beat but with the river very low and clear the fish seem to have shoaled up as we only had 4 of the barbel and 6 chub away from the last pegs, once we found the fish we had a wonderful days fishing, & once again many thanks to W.U.F for their excellent service.
