Little surface activity, water very clear after recent rise so levels good.
One on dry fly, 2 on French leader in faster runs.

Great place to be for the glorious 16th.
2nd visit to Wye, much more water this time.
Fishing once more excellent, took a while to get going but plenty of chub, mostly 3lb or over, best 3-14 and a 4-14 barbel.

Considerable amount of juvenile fish and also lots of fry in the margins. Think it was a grayling I hooked and lost

Arrived at first light for a three hour session, the river was dropping and coloured with a bit of pace. Managed three fish in the first hour and not a knock after the largest of the two Barbel weighing in at 9lb 3oz decided to hold bottom and took some budgeing anyway its good to be up and running for a new river season. Upper hill court is a very underated venue hoping to do some trotting on the lower stretch this year.

Dry fly on dropper, small tungsten bead nymph on point.

Strong downstream wind with bright sunshine and very low, clear water, so challenging fishing. In the circumstances I was pleased to come away with anything and certainly didn't mind they were all on the small side. I missed a couple of takes too. I'll be back when there's a bit more water.
