caught nothing all day. i used to love this beat for its almost guaranteed bag of big chub with the odd decent barbel thrown in, sadly that is no more.. totally devoid of fish, i spent over an hour walking the banks and did not spot a single fish apart from a few salmon jumping. will not be back..

One Chub well over 5 lb.. felt like a barbel and nearly dragged rod in ! Beat not as productive as last year but looked in good condition.

Fished the afternoon until dusk, river looked good apart from plenty of weed floating through , the one barbel we caught put up a massive fight !

One barbel lost, and only three chub caught. Slow day but finally picked up in last 2 hours with plenty of knocks and fish showing. The banks are a little treacherous. The bailiff is a friendly and a pleasure to chat to.

This stretch has deep water under the near bank and is relatively easy to fish. The Bailiff met us early and was very freindly and helpful. I fancied a few hours on the float for a change and caught lots of chub to about a pound and a half on small cubes of meat before hooking a big fish which I eventually lost in a snag! Bites were hard to come by in the bright sun, but we eventually landed 5 Barbel to 8llb 10oz on meat and boilies.
The landowner on the other bank decided to drive a digger up the river to extract stone, much to the dismay of my mate!
We enjoyed this beat and look forward to returning soon.....

Fabulous beat with good access caught 5 chub 1 juvenile barble and an eel in the morning. Andy the gamekeeper came by early afternoon we had a nice chat very informative about local wildlife and fishing. Caught 2 good size barble in the afternoon around 8-9lb. All fish caught on pellet or meat. Another lovely day on the wye.
