Feedback & Reports

A few hours late afternoon on the Honddu, quite a slow start, river was at a nice height but quite murky from recent rains and cows in the meadow section accessing the water. Had a couple on nymph, but very slow until I switched to a jig streamer, which landed me around a dozen fish. Nothing big today, a few 13 - 14 inch fish to the net but vast majority from 7 to 9 inches. Good fun nevertheless.

River at 2’6” and very brown. Dropped to 2’4” during day but did not clear. Fished fly mainly from Island and through Rock Pool. No fish seen or caught.
Looked in on Rectory Pool and put a fly through it without success.
Great day to be on the river.

Water high, fast, cold, and murky. Limited areas to fish from this bank in this water condition. Couldnt even get to upper area of the beat (upstream pf islands). Saw 2 rise just before sunset. No bites

Another great day on the Wye. Not easy fishing but roving the stretch found the fish. The Wye was up 1m ovenight and we thought this might get the fish feeding but they didn't really seem too bothered and we had to work for the bites, fighting all the debris that was coming down, weed, branches, logs, etc. However 4 barbel each and some nice chub was a great reward.

Did not fish. Walked the whole fishery and could not find 3 swims that were accessible for us being a little bit older. Nothing seems to be done to help the angler. Together with the very difficult access. Will not be visiting again. Work needs to be done.

Another great visit . The river began to rise at lunch time . First fish came at about 3 pm . None stop untill i packed up at 7 pm. All no more than 2 rod lengths out . Had an epic tustle with every fish , all in wonderful condition. Thank you.

River carrying approx18 inches extra and a nice colour as the only angler booked on the day I prebaited six swims and fished them in rotation,chub seemed to be feeding from the start ranging from 2lb up to 5lb 8oz one solitary Barbel of 5lb 8oz late in the day.Just a note to thank the landowner for building the new steps on the right hand bank making swim access easier.
