1 Barbel, 2 Chub

Phone booked ticket ,cost a extra £5 making it £28 , not sure thats helping numbers >?? any way walked both sides tossing in bread to see what was at home ...off the bridge the chub to 5lbs were ravenous , set up below and cast up under bridge with big lumps of flake ,worked well but returning fish soon killed swim.
Sun came through so moved to bottom swim left hand side ,again fed loose bread , fish on it here 30m below where I waded out to caught chub consistently with trotting, bread /corn and rolling huge pieces of meat on a lead link .
Sun out ...fish in and visa versa brilliant afternoon , but the Chub took any bait offered before the Barbel, corn and meat wise.!! then the eels arrived left around 6pm

Great days fishing on a very accessible stretch of the river. Water was clear and the weather overcast so we expected it to be a decent day and it didn’t disappoint. Barbel to 7.5lb and the chub around the 2-3lb mark. All caught on feeder and pellet.

Did not fish. We booked Foy and the Creel. The River was extremely low and this stretch is full of streamer weed. Very limited access to any swims, banks are very overgrown. We simply could not get down the areas we wanted to fish so did not even bother. Waste of money. Would not recommend fishing this stretch unless you have waders and a box / platform to get out in the river.

Booking Office Note: The River Wye is a SSSI protected river, which makes cutting swims very difficult - although some swims have been cleared along the beat. The streamer weed (Ranunculus) is also a SSSI protected species, so it can't be cut and cleared, but is also very important habitat for the fish. The low river will also make access more difficult, and we do always encourage anglers to take waders or wellies with them to suit all circumstances.

Legering with meat, the river has good colour, the levels are on the low side slightly

River was on the up with plenty of colour. Managed just the one barbel before the heavens opened. Lost 2 good fish that came unhooked so felt a little unlucky. Main method was feeder and pellets. Fished the main swim half way down the left bank.
