River dropping in level and temperature

Extremely high water levels and very limited bank space

First time on this stretch and after the recent floods, found the river in good order. Fish caught on a mix of home-made and shop -bought pellets.

Beautiful autumn day on the Wye. Four anglers fished the bottom of the beat.. Two of us blanked. 5 barbel - biggest 10lb 4oz - and 4 chub shared between the two of us that did catch. All on feeder and pellet.

After yesterday’s struggles on the Creel and the rains falling heavily most of the night, we were not overly optimistic arriving at the river and seeing it very high. Found the swims with the slacker water and hoped for the best. Not a single bite all morning and with a river still rising, hopes were diminishing rapidly. After we stopped for a bite to eat at lunchtime the barbel must have decided it was feeding time too. 5 barbel to just over 10lb and a couple of small chublets was a pleasant surprise in such a swollen river. Plus the sun came out!
As a footnote we stayed at the Hostelrie at Goodrich and we can highly recommended it, good food, beers and wonderful staff.

Normal feeder tactics, 1 barbel weighing in at 9lb 4 fought well especially in the fast flowing conditions.
Heavy rain all day made it very slippery under foot.

The river was dropping but still really pushing through, we fished a few pegs and managed 1 Chub at 4lb 2oz and 3 Barbel weighing between 8lb 10oz - 8lb 15oz, caught on pellet and luncheon meat.
Still a great day out!
