Difficult day as could not find the fish despite trying several swims. Only hook up was an eel which fortunately dropped off at the net .

Started fishing at 7:00, the river was down about 250mm down from Tuesday with about 150mm of the large rock about 50 metres downstream visible. The weather was cloudy with very bright sunny intervals
Caught throughout the day using pellets and feeder but the largest barbel was only 51/2lbs. Caught a trout of about 12oz a dace of about 6oz and foul hooked a bleak. There was a pike charging about scattering the fry in the shallows for most of the day.

Best barbel were 8.15, 8.11 and 8.8 plus we had a couple of nice chub of 4.12 and 4.10 all caught on feeder and various combinations of pellet. The end of another very enjoyable 4 days on the Wye.

A lovely day on the river but hard. Lost one fish in the weeds. Thankfully it was not tethered as I got the hook back on the mainline (the lead dropped off thanks to the release system). I suspect it was a chub based on the initial bite.
Conditions were sunny mostly, but a significant drop in air temp/humidity from the previous day - I could probably make an excuse out of that but I wont. :-)

Water levels relatively high. Small trout caught.
