Weather very mild, river down to 0.75, good flow, a slight tinge of colour still in the water, hopes high for mid November.
First time on this lovely beat set below an idyllic village sandwiched in a big Wye ox bow.
Started in front of the church which produced one 3lb chub and a 2 lb barbel in the first 2 hours. I moved down to the 3rd meadow first and had 3 nice chub and a beautiful 9.04 barbel all on meat. S.M. then followed and had 4 chub to 4Lb again on meat but no more barbel. Disappointed not to have a few late fish at dusk but all in all a great day despite locking my keys in my car at the end and having to wait nearly 2 hours for breakdown. Thank goodness my mate hadn't gone! Calamity Col

Lovely new beat with a lot of varied habitat. The oos trout was a surprise but looked in good condition.
River was a good height at 0.6 on the NRW Climery gauge. Didn't attempt to wade across to the opposite bank.

Cold weather but the river conditions looked good but had to search for the fish, feeder and pellet tactics

The river was still a bit high for the fly, with a foot of water over the planks throughout the beat. Even so, I was surprised to not have a single offer in four hours fishing, using a variety of conventionally presented,and high sticked nymphs. A leaf or two every other cast didn’t help but a very quiet day today.

No fish or even any bites.

Banks very steep and slippery, making it extremely difficult to cast. It felt dangerous accessing the water in any of the swims I fished. Even a long handled landing net was unable to satisfactorily reach the water safely, so we concluded that even if we were to catch, we'd be unable to safely land the fish.

Rather disappointed.



Finished early as unable to locate a comfortable swim.

Birthday on the irfon but it seems the grayling didn't want to come to the party, the trout did and they weren't even invited ! Nor were the 50 billion leaves in the water. This beat must rank as one of prettiest most diverse and easiest to fish of all the ones in the passport and I always enjoy being here. Fished nymphs again all day ( still no sign of fish rising) grayling and trout to 13" and 5 parr.
