Feedback & Reports

Thanks to Richard for our guest tickets. Fantastic day on a great beat, lots of fish to drys & nymphs with over half the fish coming with the Tenkara rod. Hard work taking casts between gusts of the downstream wind. 30 grayling to 1 1/2lbs, 3 trout to 1 1/2lbs and salmon parr.

3 Trout, 30 Grayling, 3 Other

Fished the wooded section in a great swim near the big rock from 2pm until dusk. The river was low but had the first fish on the first cast. Barbel from 4 to 9 lb, chub 2-3 lb. A bit snaggy, lost quite a bit of gear but a totally amazing day for Joe's first trip to the Wye. Day 1 of 3. TBC......

8 Barbel, 7 Chub

Another excellent days fishing on Wyebank, 10 barbel caught in the bottom pool using feeder and pellet. The fish were at the bottom end of the pool and came steadily through the day. All were within the 2 to 5lb class. I spent the evening in the river freelining meat on the centerpin which produced 2 good sized chub around 4lbs and 2 barbel around 7lbs at the top end of the beat. There can't be a better or more prolific fishery on the Wye. Back in september... can't wait.

12 Barbel, 2 Chub, 2 Other

Caught on a spinner.

Fished the sections above and below Llandovery from 8pm until eleven. Not much water and didn't see or catch any fish of notable size. Beautiful river though.

1 rainbow taken, 1 lost 5 yards from the bank :-( and a nice Brownie caught and released. Water has risen a bit over the last week or two but more rain please.

2 anglers fished from 9am-5pm in 6 different swims using the feeder. Struggled all day with 4 chub landed and 2 lost. River was very low and clear with not much pace in parts.

Water levels low and clear. Numerous takes to Adams, cdc emerger and gold head hares ear nymph, but none brought to hand. Beautiful sunny day which made spotting easy but they could also see me.

Had a great day and a lovely beat, hooked two barbel and lost both!! We are still trying to work out why? Although plenty of activity and we didnt manage to bank a fish but we still very much enjoyed our day on the river. Many thanks WUF for all your work.

River very very low but some rising fish in last hour or two of light.
