A well managed section of river with plenty of area's to access the water. River conditions were difficult and rising. Heavy leads or feeders were needed to hold. Conditions were more favourable at the upstream area.

River flowed straight from the chocolate factory. Hard work

First time fishing this beat nice and easy to get to , loads of room to park your vehicle and lots of river to cover , that much I didn’t know where to start ! The weather was dreadful for the first half of the day but gradually improved . I started at the top end of the beat with the shallow gravel banks but was unsuccessful, so moved back to the fishing hut for the evening session , finally got some action which saved a blank day .
Great beat with lots of options , will be back to explore some more

A good day with plenty of barbel most caught on pellets and sweet corn, weather was cooler with a few showers and cloudy most of the day .Fished several places on the beat and caught fish in most of the swims, thank you.

Difficult day on one of my favourite Wye beats. Very hot, bright sunshine & low, clear water levels.
Only had 2 bites all day but a big chub and a Wye pb 11-01 barbel in the evening made it all worth while.
One thing that can be very frustrating here is the cattle. The herd were blocking the gate to the lower part of the fishery for most of the day and having young calves with them meant that we couldn't risk trying to move them on. Therefore we couldn't access 90% of the fishery, which when you've paid £45 per person is disappointing. I perfectly understand that it is a working farm, one of the things that I love about fishing Wye & Usk stretches and realise that there's no easy answer but it's something to bear in mind if you're considering fishing here.

It was a hard morning at the hut end producing only 4 chub so we moved down to far end . Much better 6 barbel and one monstrous carp weighing in at 20 lb . All caught on method with marine halibut pellet .
