Warn sunny day, river level normal with clear water. Began fishing at 9.30am and fished till 9.30pm. Took 2 chub & 7 barbel all to ledger using a variety of baits. Excellent days fishing.

7 Barbel, 2 Chub

Another beautiful stretch of river, with access very good, a drive around the field and right up to the waters edge. Pre baited several swims with pellet & hemp with the plan of coming back to them later, when we did nothing until mid afternoon, then 2 barbel and 9 chub. All on sweet corn, nothing on pellet. Thanks to W&UF for another wonderful opportunity to fish this fantastic river.

2 Barbel, 9 Chub

Beautiful Beat with lovely pools. Began fishing 12.30pm. 4 fish, 2 Chub taken on worm, 1 Barbel and 1 Trout. Fished until 6 pm before heading home. In the words of Arnie "I'll be back".

1 Trout, 1 Barbel, 2 Chub

Water temperature 13 degrees C, water low and clear. Water flow - fast. Only 1 Chub :( No Barbel. Long walk from car park. Be careful when you leave the car park, impossible to see.

1 Chub

Only fished the morning as we had a long drive back. Caught & released a shad on spinner and also a lovely 1lb wild brown trout on a wet fly & a SH outfit. Saw one salmon heading downriver but they wouldn't co-operate in the bright sunshine. Lovely beat though and will certainly be back next season.

The river was in fine winter condition so no excuse for having a blank but I did. Tried all the things that have worked in the past but not today. Lots of knocks but that was it. It was a very bright day with a slight frost the night before - perhaps that was the reason for the dry net. Thanks as always to w u f for giving us the chance to fish great beats like this and taking my booking at such notice.

9 chub to one rod and 4 chub to other rod. Biggest chub 6lb. Proper old beasty weather, very cold.

River high but clear appart from the Luggsmouth Pool which had a brown slick running down the far bank. Only had 2 fish all day, a 4lbs chub and a 7lbs barbel, both caught on 12mm x2 halibut pellets. Can't wait until my next visit to this beat, thanks WUF.

Nice day for a white wedding and thats it, total peasouper on the way and back from Essex. Wonderfull Wye (usually) very full and fast but not flooded. On its way down actually but unfishable due to debris on every single cast. Far and wide had no problem driving my 2wd car to fishing hut and back allthough farmer had tied gate shut and my vehicle became the main attraction to a heard of cows and in turn covered it in hair, saliva and excrement (nice) but other wildlife fantastic. Saw two kingfishers trying it on to not much avail. Bad day but fished this beat twice before and had excelent sport so will be back next year. Probbaly try different beats in future, thanks Wye and Usk, two chub bites missed.

Struggled on a beat I've not seen at normal levels which didn't help as river up and pushing through. Had one chub between us although was 5lb 9oz so a decent one. Thanks WUF, will be back in Summer.
