Feedback & Reports

Only three anglers as 4th angler feared the challenge! First time here for all of us and great sport enjoyed by all with 13 fish in total to 10.5lb, all on pellet. Fast flowing water and slippery banks to swims made it very dangerous to get to very limited swims. Cant wait to go back though!!!
One angler went home with his tail between his legs after great first day!

A beautiful and tranquil stretch of the river. However, it was very disappointing in terms of the amount of swims available. The lower areas are basically impossible to fish due to there being no managed swims at all apart from two which were clearly very dangerous in the wet weather. Below those two the bank side was way too overgrown with trees/bushes to even consider creating your own swim.
Very annoying considering some of the best looking water could not be accessed.
To top that off, the barbel were playing very hard to get and we only had one between the two of us.
Will think twice before returning to this beat - I think WUF need to have a word with the riparian owners.

Lovely warm Autumn day. River very low despite recent rain. Fished the top end of the fishery. Not a touch until around 5pm, then 2 barbel approx 9.5lb and 8lb, both in excellent condition. Thanks again WUF and guide Adam Fisher.
There is a makeshift gate just before the top car parking area. I assume we can drive through this gate to the parking area?

WUF note - Yes, you can drive through this wooden gate to the parking area.

Wonderful day as always on a stunning piece of Wye and Usk Foundation water. Thanks again to all the team. Plenty of action throughout the day from accessible swims.

Pellet feeder with mixed pellet, hemp, groundbait. Sea deadbaits float legering . River was low.

Chub to 4lb came to maggot feeder, bites sporadic. One brownie, 1.5lb on same tactic. Two barbel in last hour of light fell to fish-based boilie.
Had to work for the fish but very enjoyable day with mild weather of sun and showers.

The river had dropped by a few inches from our previous visit two days earlier. Best barbel was 8lbs 13ozs and the biggest chub was 4lbs 6ozs. Fish were caught on pellet.

River in good order and floating weed less of a problem today. 5 barbel to 9-06 on feeder and pellet. Pleasant stretch of river.
