Started fishing around 10.30am, not much happened for the first 2 hours then C had his 1st ever 10lb barbel, weighing in at 10.12, having fished the Wye and Seven several times a year for over 30 years he was well pleased, even bought the first beer. C had one more, i had 6 to 8lb and 4 chub all in fantastic condition, we fished the wooded section using pellet and corn.

Great day on the fishery. The fish had clearly just spawned as the chub were pretty well knocked around and the the barbel long and thin. Having said that the fish fed much of the day. Thanks Don on all the hard work completed in Leg meadow. The strimming work was much appreciated.
Largest barbel was 8lbs 13oz and the largest chub 5lbs 3oz. Happy days

Turned up a bit l8 to be fair but the fish were on the feed through the day with it being overcast once i found the fish had 4 nice barbel in a few hours all on pellet...

4 Barbel

Barbel of 10lb 4oz and 6lb and a chub of 4lb. River at 1.05m (Lydbrook gauge) and falling. Air temp 21C, mostly light cloud with some bright sunshine.
Fished the Meadow from 5am and had the 6lb barbel at 6:30am. Nothing besides small knocks on the feeder and quick chub bites until I caught the chub and the larger barbel on consecutive casts to the same spot around 5pm.
Lots of swims with issues accessing the water at present due to the steep banks, conditions were dry today but would have been treacherous if wet.
Loads of canoes but none of them came near my line.

Used meat as bait. The morning was more active than the evening.
A lovely spot but very steep access which was slippery in the early dew. I would not to fish there in wet conditions, just too dangerous! Could handrail/ ropes be installed or am I just getting old?
The 'other' fish were all eels. Can anyone recommend a good way to unhook them?
