There was only 2 of us fishing on a wonderful beat on the Herefordshire Wye it was stunning as usual ,the fishing started slow due to it being 25 degrees and having the sun shining directly in our faces and the river running very high and was coloured still like a rich beef consome it was tough going tommy bois even tried various ye olde pork products but this didn’t work either ,I managed to get in the trees and fished tight in a bush which was submerged and knocked a nice 7lb barbel but the other fisherman struggled in the hot sun then that evening we found a patch on the river by the steps which was filled with chub every cast we could put the feeder and pellet out and it was non stop takes we had over 24 takes but only banked ten between us???????? all in all it would have been great if the river was running lower and the beefy tinge had passed through and it wasn’t 25 degrees ????

1 Barbel, 10 Chub

Fished duo and spiders in the riffles and small dries, griffiths gnat on the glides, plenty of pulls missed takes and nine landed, river seemed in great condition, thanks to everyone involved with the fishing passport.

9 Trout

Most barbel caught in the first peg in the top field and a couple in the meadow

river a bit high and run fast. Lots of flies but no fishing rising. Used heavy nymphs and landed a beautiful BT of around 4 pound, and other 7 (probably few more) graylings, all around 1 and 2 pound. Most of the graylings caught in the pocket water.
