Never fished the wye before as new to fishing. Went after a barbel which I managed to achieve, about 7-8lbs plus one very good chub around 5lb. River was very high and fast. I only had 3 oz feeders so had to fish close in,even that was hard with the flow. Was concerned I wouldn’t get the car back up the track,just managed it,although did get stuck once……….????

Biggest barbel over 11lb. Main worry for the day was wondering if we would get back up the track at the end of the (rainy) day…we did!

Rained all day. Banks treacherous. But 3 hard fighting barbel to 8 1/2 pounds.

Lovely fishery with a mix of swims, but take a rope. River low and slow, sunny and bright, so not surprised to have two runs all day ! Jolly's Studio in Goodrich is a great place to stay and literally five minutes from the courtfield estate waters.

River condition was low , and a very bright day so not the best fishing conditions , have to say we were disappointed how very few swims there are on Thomas wood stretch making it very hard work for 4 anglers on the beat

2 Barbel and 10 chub caught on trotting tactics. 2 barbel and 3 chub caught on the feeder. Water levels were low and there were a lot of kayaks and paddle boards on the river until mid afternoon.
