2 rods blanked and the other were still catching when we left, 1 rod caught all day spread out and the other caught from 7 onwards. The lowest I have seen this stretch and I have been fishing the great wye for a while.

Water low, clear and very warm, all of the fish taken on pellets. A very enjoyable day.

A fairly tough day due to bright conditions and a low river. Winkled out a few chub throughout the day before the barbel fed after 7pm.

Sunny and clear conditions, quite hard work for 5 chub.

Same scenario as the 24th June, but with the bonus of no (human) swimmers in the faster water. This time the barbel in the evening was 7lb 4oz, and one of the hardest fighters I have ever caught. All the fish this year have been in perfect condition, and the river is full of fry, so the long dry spell does not so far seem to have impacted the coarse fish. However, it is noticeable that far fewer salmon are leaping this year, on the Wye in general.

Caught in the cloudy conditions early in the day. When the sun came out over the very clear river, the barbel ran for cover!

The river was very low, but had a tinge of colour. There was not much weed growth compared with previous years.
I was catching barbel on float-fished pellet until a succession of canoists, dogs, wild swimmers and family swimmers invaded my swim and my fishing was finished for the day by 11am. Paying as much as we do for fishing, this is very disappointing. I realise it is one of the perils of fishing the Wye in summer, but that doesn't make it any less irritating.

Started in the faster water below the bridge, which produced 2 average size barbel and a chub. Due to canoes and selfish idiots swimming right through the deeper glides (and right through the swims we were fishing!), it was necessary to move at midday and find some deeper, quieter swims. This produced a corking 8lb 4oz barbel in the early evening. All fish in perfect condition, and fighting well.

A wonderful day on the beautiful Wye. Although conditions were very blustery and grey, the fish fed throughout the session with the better barbel coming late in the afternoon. No monsters but I managed my Wye PB barbel of a shade under 9lb. Most of the chub I caught showed predator scars - presumably pike.
