River in excellent condition; weather likewise. Afternoon session produced 6 barbel to 7.8 and a single chub with a couple of fish lost. A fine way to end the season.

6 Barbel, 1 Chub

First day of two at the end of the season. I settled in a swim that I had caught a couple from before and C H the next swim below me. CH caught steadily all day on 15 mm boilies. I struggled with snags and decided to change the line of attack, finishing up with 5 up to 9.2lb and 3 chub to 4lb, on double 8mm pellet. C H battered me with 9 barbel and 2 chub. It was a glorious day with the river fining down but still a nice flow and colour to it.

Another stunning day on the Wye, so lucky for March.

Fished middle field and had a great day, 5 barbel in total and 5 chub, all fish caught on pellet and feeder.

Biggest barbel was 10lb 2 oz with all other between 7-9lbs.

Great to be able to park the car near the river bank, plenty of swims to choose from too.

River falling and colour dropping out, looked ideal, but very slippery banks made fishing, especially landing fish, difficult. All fish, bar one small chub, taken on pellet, the other on caster. Finished early to watch rugby ;-)

Perfect river and weather conditions meant the barbel were feeding well today. Fishing at the lower end of the beat I sat it out in one productive swim all day. Bites came steadily throughout the day on a variety of shapes, sizes and types of pellet combined with a 5oz feeder to hold bottom in the strong flow. The final tally was 10 barbel to 8lb 14oz. A good start to my 4 day end of season trip.

Fantastic day on a lovely beat, 12 degrees river running off with a bit of colour still there.
Between 3 people we had 7 Barbel and 5 Chub plus 1 Grayling. All fish came to the maggot feeder.
