Great to get back on the Wye at last. River up to 0.83m on Bredwardine gauge, rising about 0.3m in the day. Weather very mixed, wet early on, drier later. All fish taken in bottom field swims on pellet, boilies and meat. Highlights were a 2lb perch on a 22mm boilie and a 9lb barbel on a 10mm boilie.

Found fishing hard going and I could not locate the barbel.......probably my lack of skill. A beautiful stretch though and I will definite.y return.

River still a little high and swims limited due to the flow, so we looked for the slower moving water on the downstream end of the beat. One of us lost 3 fish to snags and hook pulls and the other two spent the day enjoying the views and half decent weather for a change. It just wasn’t to be our day! Good stretch and easy access. Hoping for better luck in the new season.

River dropping and quite cold so thought catching was probably a long shot but managed a couple of nice barbel early in the morning.

River still high limiting number of fishable swims. 2 Chub of 4 and 4.5 lb and four trout all taken long trotting.
Tried boilies, meat and corn with feeder, but nothing doing

After a heavy frost the night before conditions were always going to be tough but under the circumstances we were happy to catch a few decent chub to just short of 6lb plus a couple of bonus grayling. Only criticism, it would have been nice to know the track past the orchard was closed necessitating a punishing walk through the mud.
