Another superb beat, the setting is lovely and being higher up the Wye you miss a lot of the canoes!! Three rods were booked but only one fished. Barbel and chub came regulary all day, although as pointed out before, this is a very snaggy section. River was 3ft up and rising. Access at this beat is tricky. The farmer has locked the gates and directed me to follow the road. This was impossible as it was so muddy. I scaled the gates and follwed the path given in the directions. The route I went was down the hill and then over the second gate, follow the hedges to another gate, then follow the river down to the beat. I would say this was about a 10-15 minute walk and I would not reccommend this beat for less able anglers. The swims are all well defined with posts at the top of the bank showing where they are. Even in high conditions there were still plenty of swims.

18 barbel and 8 chub all on pellet. Only 2 fished this time as 2 of the party did not fancy the trek to the fishery, but to those that did the fishing were not disappointed. Very glad that this fishery has been opened to all.

29 barbel upto 9lb 12oz and 15 chub upto 5lb, mainly caught on pellet with a few also on meat. Some swims very snaggy but these produced the most fish and took the most terminal tackle. A few fish had other hooks in their mouths with one fish having 2 hooks from battles it had previously won. Travel light as it is a fair walk from the parking areas.

Fished on the bend opposite the gardens landing several barbel and chub. A wonderful day on a gorgeous stretch, as always I cannot wait to get back!
Thanks to all at W&U.

Started fishing around 10am warm still conditions, but rain moved in at midday and continued until 5pm. Caught 10 barbel & 2 chubb on ledgered feeder using a variety of baits.

Superb stretch of water,river looking good ,resulting in 5 barbel to 9lb 6oz & 1 eel. Fished in faster water downstream of weir. Many thanks for once again your excellent service when booking & for the opportunity to fish this wonderful river.
