Feedback & Reports

River in spate with a heavy colour. One angler stayed in one place on the feeder catching chub up to 1-1.5 lb, plus chublets. Roaming proved more successful on a float with really fine access to a lovely stretch of river. Chub caught by roaming to 2.5 lbs.

Well done to the landowner here for maintaining the banks to get the best out of what the water has to offer. Saw a couple of Salmon moving through one cleared the water just 15 feet from my rod tip. Coarse anglers are lucky to fish here as this is obviously a productive well kept Salmon section.

Thanks Fishing Passport for the chance to experience a pristine stretch of the Wye.

River level was high with a very strong flow, managed to find some slack water just before the end of Pylon swim, but the shingle beach was completely covered. Caught a few chub but not much doing.

Lovely beat. Fished a stick float off the many croys, 30+ good sized chub caught.

1 Barbel, 30 Chub

A pleasant days fishing, we both settled into swims on Upper Sallys. We caught Chub to 4lb on both feeder and also trotting the float using meat and pellet. Unfortunately no Barbel were caught.
The drive to the hut around the edge of the field could be greatly improved if the tall grass in the middle of the track was cut back, at one point it was like driving through the grasslands of the Serengeti.

Struggled to find the correct entrance to fishery off the road - perhaps WUF could update their directions. Access is from gap in hedge (gates are permanently open) just as you come to the end of the double yellow lines). Fished the last concrete croy in a howling down stream wind. Float fishing a non starter, rods held high were bounced consistently and in danger of being blown off the rest. Tried legered meat, pellet (various sizes/combinations), cheese, sweetcorn and bread. May have had a knock after a couple of hours - only fished 2.30-6.30, when the cricket had finished and I was beaten.
