7 Chub

This was our first trip to the Wye hoping to catch a Barbel. Relatively inexperienced when it comes to rivers but fish alot of still waters so hard to say if our returns were down to inexperience or fishing conditions.

All 4 anglers fished the sheep drink swim as this was the only spot we could all get in. Water level looked low but a few fish showed as we arrived. 3 chub averaging around 3-4 lb were caught on the feeder using pellets and luncheon meat. We also took a bonus pike of around 8lb which took a pellet on the retrieve and somehow stayed on.
