River in good order and floating weed less of a problem today. 5 barbel to 9-06 on feeder and pellet. Pleasant stretch of river.

Good day with fish shared between both rods. Best barbel was 9lbs 4ozs and chub was 4lbs 9ozs. All caught on pellet.

River was in excellent condition as it had started to drop off from heavy rain a few days before but was still very coloured.
We chose to fish at the upstream end of the beat and started catching within the first hour and caught steadily throughout the day with average fish around 7 to 8lb and largest 10.5lb.
Heavy groundbait feeder and pellet was the winning method.

An excellent days fishing that we will look to repeat as soon as we can!!

17 Barbel, 2 Chub

River racing through and colour of chocolate. One 4lb chub and one eel from swim at top of stretch at dusk.

River up and coloured following recent rain, lot of weed coming through making it difficult. Fish came throughout the day, all on pellet.

4 Barbel, 2 Chub

River higher than last time I came out and still rising with some colour and lots of weed coming down. Difficult to fish mid river.
Fish hard to come by although my friend on another ticket had 4 barbel to around 9lbs.
I lost one, had one and had a chub all in the last hour of daylight. The chap I was with had a couple of chub - it was his first visit but I'm sure he'll be back for more.
Lovely day to be out, sun was shining, very warm. Would only have been better had the barbel really come out to play too!

One brown trout. Surface and sub surface lure for pike and maggot using swim feeder for barbel. No takes. Steep banks were very slippery making access very difficult. A lot of weed drifting down stream.

The river was clear and a bit slow but you can find a few runs. We fished pellet over a 8 hour session, drove up from Devon for the day. Caught 2 Chub, 6 Barbel. Best fish 7lb.
Most fish came late afternoon.

6 Barbel, 2 Chub

Another tough day on a very low river. Very little action throughout the day except for an Eel. Managed to land a Barbel that weighed just over 6lb on a Halibut pellet just before pack up. Very nice venue with easy access and lots of swims.

Another brill day on the Wye. Had to work hard to find the fish, but there was no stopping them once I had.
Had five fish 4.14, 4.14, 4.15, 5.8 and 6.14. Also lost a huge Barbel, it slipped the hook whilst trying to bully it away from the over hanging trees. Why is it always the big ones that get away!!
