River high and coloured compared to the level during the very dry spring. Fished dawn to 10:30 then 19:00 to dusk. Need 2oz lead to hold bottom. 1 Chubb around 1lb 8oz at 06:15, luncheon meat. Hardly a tap otherwise. tried many baits and locations.

Beat immaculate, thank you for mowing a path etc.

First session of the season and again confirmation that the endangered eel seems to be present in numbers up the Wye. Four up to 2lbs came to turmeric spiced meat in the first part of the morning.
Tried halibut pellet after the eel action but there was no interest shown.
Back on meat, two six pound barbel came to the net then another, larger one was hooked and played for a couple of minutes until I tangled the rod tip in an overhanging branch. Duh. It looked like Goodnight Nurse but managed to untangle and the barbel was still on. Played him carefully for half a minute then Ping. Fish and hook separated.
Nothing hooked first part of the afternoon despite numerous bumps and torches so called it a day.
