2 pike, biggest 8lb

2 Pike

River was spot on fished about 7 different swims had a few knocks during the day, had a massive rap around just as it was getting dark unfortunately lost what felt like a decent Barbel .

Fished 1000-1700. Had one bite at 16:15 and landed a nice chub around 4lb. Fished the top field and tried two swims. Feeder and lead, tried boilies, 8mm pellet, meat. The chub fell to a squid and octopus boilie. Not quite the days sport I had hoped for but by far the best maintained WUF beat I have fished. Steps, ropes etc very useful. Thank you. Will be back.

1 Chub

No fish caught

Didn’t Fish as River went into Flood. Hope I can use the Wash Off policy into next year? Gutted

River was high but conditions were good except for a strong wind. Caught the first Barbel on the first cast using an SG1 Boillie, went quite so changed to meat and landed a Chub of about 3lb. Moved up to the top begs near the car park in the afternoon and after missing a few Chub bites had a massive rap around right under my feet it took me by surprise as it had been quite nearly loosing my footing as the fish headed for the faster water never ceases to amaze me the power these fish have after a hell of a scrap I slipped the net under the second Barbel of the day which weighed in at 7lb 6oz .

2 Barbel, 1 Chub

Had a terrible start to the day. Started fishing in the bottom field, the river level was really high. At about 9.30 had a ferocious knock from a Barbel, went to pick up the rod, slipped onto my back, looked up to see my rod and reel disapearing into the river, tried in vain to grab the rod, only to get a boot full of water up to my thigh.To rub salt in the wound, I took out a spare reel from my rucksack to save weight this morning. Drove to Ross and bought a cheap reel and line. Must have looked like a tramp in the high street, covered in mud and wet down one side. But I didn't give up. Ended up with a pb Barbel, not big, but big to me. Also I caught the same Chub twice within half an hour. Luncheon meat was the bait.

1 Barbel, 3 Chub

Another lovley day on the Wye, Chub were definitely on the feed, picked up 2 barbel last thing, all fish caught on pellet or boilie

2 Barbel, 14 Chub

Quite a hard day, river high and running through fast. Fished the top swim,didn't use a swim feeder as I have lost plenty of tackle in this swim before. Fished fairly close in with Luncheon meat. All four chub were around the three pound mark. The biggest being 3lb 14oz. The bank was muddy and slippery. I was hoping for a better return, with mild weather for the time of year. Saw a Raven and a pair of Gooseanders. Bit noisey at times, with a pheasant shoot and a tally ho lot on the oposite bank, blowing their horns, shouting and dogs barking.

4 Chub
