Feedback & Reports

Glad I had the foresight to go for the cooler part of the week when booking back in December. Fished mostly the Church Stream pool opposite the island, using feeder. Bit slow to start with, a couple of chub plus a small eel. Around midday the barbel moved in and fed until 2.30 pm. Nothing huge, the biggest around 6 lb, but fought well in the fast water. All took 11mm pellets. Later moved to the field down from the Church, where had a few more chub.

With temperatures around 30℃ forecast an early start ensured , fish came from the off until about 1030am..
By 11am it was more like the serengeti, and it was time for me to escape the heat..a very enjoyable morning session, best barbell just over 9lb.

Fished the church pool and where having a great day until it was spoiled by a bunch selfish canoeists who decided to land on the beach directly across from us and have a picnic. They were jumping in the water and shouting and laughing with no thought for anyone but themselves. We decided to call it a day and retired to the pub.

On our 2nd day, C H went in a swim that he has had success from before and I dropped in below him. Had 2 in 2 casts and caught on and off every couple of hours with a few more at the end to finish with. 10 to 9lb again, all on double 8mm pellet alternating between the feeder and straight lead. C H had 4 on either boilie or pellet again alternating the approach.

All in all a great 2 days, the fish were in top condition and didn't require any retention before releasing back, they were fighting fit.

Can't wait till June comes round.

Fished mainly in the lower field section using pellet feeder with mini boilies, fish came early morning with a break in activity between 11 & 3 with action resuming from then on. Had a break from the feeder to wobble deadbaits for a hour or so resulting in one pike just below double figures.

Yet another really enjoyable day on the Wye.

A very bright sunny warm day, which seemed to have a notable effect on the fishing.
Managed a few fish from below the rapids area all to pellet feeder with meat or mini boilies as hookbait.
