Arrived about 2pm. Roved around in the afternoon trying to find the fish and eventually did so settled into a swim for the evening and had 3 fish all between 8 and 9lbs in about an hour. Really nice beat. All fish taken on pellet on the ledger using PVA bags. Only issue was a rude angler on the opposite bank who started F'ing and blinding as he thought I was going to fish opposite him. Ridiculous as I was miles (literally 30 yards downstream and it's a wide river!) from him and was only walking the beat anyway! I told him to mind his manners and left him to it... anyway, nice evenings fishing, good access and well kept.

Only fished the fly as the river seemed perfect for it but no joy.

Very nice and picturesque beat. River in excellent condition. Slow action but managed to catch 1 Barbel around 10 lb (77 cm) and 2 nice Chubs.

It was a hard day as the river was dirty and very fast. Fished in a back eddy. Both fish were biggish. One at 7.5 and the other just. under 9.

Hard to find the right gates on the farm . Farmer kindly let us drive down the river bank to deeper water and away from the noisy pump. All on pellets

Started fishing around 07.30 hrs at the top of the beat then around 16 swans moved in, not a bite. Moved down river 11.15hrs. 2 barbell by 13.00 hrs ,then not a bite until around 14.20hrs then 9 more and losing 3 by 17.35hrs then they went off the feed .packed up around 18.15hrs as a long drive home. All fish caught on pellet using a pellet feeder. The river was running fast with a slight colour and a good level of water. What a GREAT days fishing. Thank you ALL at the Wye & Usk Foundation

Not quite as good a day as the numbers suggest as the largest barbel was only a pound and a half, enjoyable nontheless. Would have moved to try and find the larger fish but it was constant showers all afternoon and evening and I was in a sheltered spot. Other was an eel. A nice beat, hope to come back soon.
