Great days fishing again on Middle Hill Court. Fish were caught on a combination of bread, sweetcorn, meat and pellet. Ledgering, freelining and trotting all produced results. Well maintained stretch of the Wye. I did have to remove several metres of clear mono off some of the swims. Please take your rubbish home with you and keep the river clean and tidy.

Super slippery and dangerous banks, needs more work to improve swims for coarse anglers. One only needs to walk up to the Vanstone and beyond to see what is possible in terms of improvements.

Fishing Passport Note : Difficult access is exaggerated when the banks are wet (and also during exceptionally dry periods). The Wye is an SAC and SSSI, meaning the river and its banks are highly protected under law. There are, therefore, strict limits on what can be done to improve access.

Lovely day on a well maintained beat. One angler lost a barbel early on then rest of day it was all chub, both on trotted meat and groundbait feeder with various hook baits. Chub from 1.5 to 5.5lb, most around 3lb. One angler caught a surprise 1lb+ roach on trotted meat. Lots of canoeists, all friendly and courteous.
