2 Barbel, 3 Chub

A cooler, cloudier day than forecast so, despite a low river, prospects were reasonable. Fished on the bottom with a small feeder and caught the first barbel and a couple of chub on pellets. Bites slowed down a bit in late afternoon so briefly switched to sweetcorn which really got the chub going and any barbel didn't stand a chance. Back to pellets and a couple more barbel before closing time. Nothing spectacular - barbel to about 51/2 lbs and chub up to around 3+, but an enjoyable session with a cooling breeze and the usual Wye wildlife (including canoeists and bathers!).

First time on this beat and very impressed with swims, though water level was low on a sunny day. Caught on pellet and meat biggest was around 8lb

Short evening session with halibut pellets/ground bait in PVA bags with the barbel at 21:00 & 21:25 @ 5lbs 10oz and 5lbs 1oz . Worth moving if you’re not having any action!
