Feedback & Reports

Really enjoyed day which was cloudy and warm and river coloured. I had a PB barbel of 7lb 4oz and another one of about 2lb. Also one chub just under 4lbs and 8 others. The big barbel was caught on sweetcorn and the others on luncheon meat. All using a feeder in middle of river. Did try trotting but no good. Fished from the swim on the left bank with about 12 supported steps. Need to be careful when you get down there as it was very slippery. Only fished from 10.30 till 15.30 (when it became sunny) so much better results than I expected.

The river was low and with only a choice of three swims to fish we were defeated before we began.

The beat seemed expensive for the options you have to fish when you get there, access is tight and if the lay by is full near the bridge then you can find yourself with a fair walk with your tackle.

Fished using a method feeder with pellets and boilie - ended up with a chub of about 1lb and can't see myself returning any time soon.

It was our first trip to river wye and it was a wonderful experience. Caught only 1 barbel which is a bit of let down however had a busy day catching chub ranging between 1lb-4lb. Can't wait to visit again some other stretches of this beautiful river.

First visit here. Really enjoyed the session, scenic and quiet. Just upstream of one of my favourite beats the Creel. Fished afternoon till evening. Good variety of swims for such a short stretch. Will be back here.
