Feedback & Reports

River conditions on the 10th were high, about a metre over normal level and dropping. It was coloured, but we had seen the Wye in this condition in the past and had a good day. Weather was good and we had some early successes, but despite trying almost all of the available pegs, about 6 safe ones and other tricky ones, we landed 9 good fish. Biggest barbel about 6lb, biggest chub 4lb. Great beat, we will certainly be back.

We were surprised to find that booking 3 rods, which is only possible over the phone, we were charged an additional £4:50. Could it not be possible to book three rods over the web?

WUF Note : The additional booking fee was £2.00. (£2.50 online, £4.50 over the phone). 2 rods take the beat at How Caple. We dont put a third party angler on top of two already booked in hence the need to retain some rods for phone booking only. WUF will be introducing a 'block booking' facility at some point in the future.

We were blessed with a warm day, river was at a good height and good colour.

Fished lower end and managed 4 barbel and two chub between us. All fish caught on pellett and feeder.

Really lovely stretch with good access

Tried different spots but despite river being in great condition and the temp on the up. Only managed to lose 2 fish.
Very disappointing.

River dropped approx 10 - 12 inchs and clearing, looked very promising. Began fishing approx 11.00, baiting a number of swims with barbel in mind. By 16.30 I had no action despite moving a couple of times.
Decided a change of tactics was required to save another blank so I went freeline/rolling lumps of meat with chub in mind. This resulted in one chub 3lb+ and two 5lb+. returned to baited swim, but no further action. Very pleased.

3 Chub

No fish caught. Is it being stocked.

Quick hour or so on my way home from work. River high but clear. No signs of life, but just wanted to get back on a river!

Very bright and sunny day. River in great form though catches disappointing . Tried 3 different swims
Usual boilie and pellet.
Lovely peaceful stretch of river.
Access to more swims than in the summer..

All well orgianised and a lovely day on the river. The Wye was fast flowing, high and coloured. There were signs of the water dropping. Valiant fly fishing attempts twinned with spinning using Fling Cs. Nothing seen or caught

A lovely early Spring day on the Wye. River up and pushing through. Two barbel caught in the edge, biggest 7lb. Pellet and paste.
