First visit to this beat and we had a really good day.
The barbel seemed to start feeding from mid afternoon onwards. Most fish falling to swimfeeder and pellet but also a few on meat. Best Barbel of the day weighed 8lbs 7oz with most being around the 6lbs mark. Other fish were eels caught on meat. Hope to return here on next trip.

Difficult day on a low,clear river. Couple of days too early probably after rain on saturday. Never fails to impress though. Thankyou WUF.

Difficult day today managing 4 chub and the one Barbel
These all fell to the rolling ledger and meat tactic as static baits didn't work at all. Lovely stretch

Really enjoyed fishing here. Struggled to find the fish at first, I was casting in the much faster flowing areas. Usually on the Wye these are the holding spots but not the case here. Luckily there was another angler a few swims down who fishes it regularly, he told me where the good spots were and within minutes the fish started coming, thanks again Colin! All the barbel I caught where of a good size, smallest at 7lb biggest was 9lb. Good access and parking and plenty of room once your on the bank. I will be back again for sure - great fishing!

Fishing a bit tougher than usual, one decent barbel around 9lbs. Always good to be out fishing though though.

Absolutely spectacularly beautiful place. Very hot and bright sunshine all day. Fish switched on in last two hours of daylight. Up to 8lb for the barbel. Chub miniscule.
Barbel caught on pellet.
One rod blanked (except for the tiny chub) but it was a joy to be in such a gorgeous place.

The river had risen overnigh twith a nice colour so a good day looked in prospect.I fished near the top of the beat and in the church field.5 barbel with 2 lost and 1 chub was he result of a very pleasant day's fishing on a very nice part of the Wye valley. Fish caught on feeder with pellet on the hook.

1 barbel lost early on opposite the Church by one rod. I then landed two chub to 4lb and lost a decent sized barbel. Other than this it was a quiet day perhaps not helped by the conditions of sideways rain... A nice beat though.
