First visit to this picturesque beat. Upstream swims were unfishable due to anglers on opposite bbank but we managed to find a couple of suitable swims. Weather good with no wind. Two PB's with two Barbel both dead on 8 1/2 lbs, for my brother and son, so the beers were on me.

Lovely looking stretch of the Wye, arrived at 0700, fished various swims throughout the day, conditions were wet and windy. All fish came to pellet and feeder.
All the fish caught were in superb condition and fought like demons. A very enjoyable day. Barbel to 9lb and chub to 51b.

Three tickets for this lovely section, somewhat spoilt by 'anglers' on the opposite bank shouting to each other for much of the day. Fishing was hard, low water levels and very clear but we all caught barbel to a best of 9lb.

We all used feeders with groundbait, boilies or pellets or meat for bait. I liked this venue, as did the other two I went with. I spoke to the game keeper and he was very helpful and a nice chap. I would go back to this venue.

Morning started well with early barbel to me. The sky cleared and got very hot fishing then very hard but when sun went down they came back on the feed: three more for me best around 71/2 and my friend had two more including best fish of the day at 8lb, we both fished pellet and feeder chub were all small about 3lb. Great fishery, very helpful river keeper but some repair work is needed to steps leading down to swims and new swims have not had steps cut which are needed on these steep banks for safe fishing especially when wet; we will be back.

Slow during the day due to bright sunny conditions but we all had a great evening. Lots of pegs at the top of the beat but not many at the lower part. All in all an excellent day, the 1 pike was caught on a static pellet!!

Arrived at 7am fed swim, waited, first cast 8 am, first barbel. 8:10am bites another Barbel landed and 2 lost in tree roots at near bank plus 2 Chub, Bites and fish dried up by 11:30. Fed a swim again at 1pm started again at 2pm 2 more Barbel during afternoon. Same feed and wait again at 4pm and another 2 Barbel by dusk. All on Pellets and feeder or straight lead (depending on weed). Barbel ranged from 5lb to 7lb 11oz.
Last cast contacted with something that decided that it wanted to go to Ross on Wye and I couldn't stop it!!!!!
Great day with weather behaving it's self for a change.

Another great day on the Wye, river well up and coloured 3 foot plus on the river gauge but still found some areas to fish and some feeding fish too! Most to feeder tactics. A few people fishing opposite made some areas a bit tight but a great day all the same. Thank you wuf.
