Feedback & Reports

I know only a small stretch, but maybe only 3 possible fishable pegs. Water was very low and clear.

4 Chub

2 carried on fishing from the day before.
A few chub in the morning but came home mid afternoon due to the heat and the lack of swims that were available (overgrown / very steep).
As mentioned in yesterdays report, i really think this stretch could do with a bit of maintenance. None of the swims have been cut out in any way & for £25 per day, we expected better fishing conditions.

8 Chub

3 anglers fished.
Great days fishing in not ideal weather (very sunny).
Chub came pretty consistently & barbel at the start and end of the day.
It’s a shame there’s not more of the bank thats been maintained to be fishable.

5 Barbel, 40 Chub

Only fished for a couple hours with river low and clear but the fish were still active and feeding. All caught on feeder.

4 Chub

Lost count of Chub caught, both on feeder and trotting. Water level very low but Chub fed all day. Most around 2lb some 3 and one 4lb. Spotted one small barbel but none caught.

Not easy to find access gate drove past 3 times, in good wheather getting car down to river is fine, but i would think long and hard if there had been any rain. The surroundings are fantastic and the world seems miles away it is so peaceful.

i knew it was a very short stretch and it says there are 5 swims but in my opinion there are only 3 swims and in the very low gin clear conditions 2 of these swims are unfishable outside of early morning or in the evening.

We did catch some nice chub on ledgered meat but patience was the order of the day. you need river conditions to be spot on

Back for a second day and similar to Monday but took a siesta when the fishing went quiet in the afternoon. Similar mix of chub to yesterday and a better barbel at 6-6. Chub not in great condition yet but barbel looked good.
Love this place.
No swim cutting done, a machete would have been handy! Lock on gate was broken when I arrived.

Great place to be for the glorious 16th.
2nd visit to Wye, much more water this time.
Fishing once more excellent, took a while to get going but plenty of chub, mostly 3lb or over, best 3-14 and a 4-14 barbel.
