Gorgeous beat, so much life there. My daughter inbetween fishing was catching minnows, stone loaches and bullheads in the shallows . Saw a massive shoal of around 500 mini barbel swim past us both and I've never seen that before and is a good indication for the future. Both barbel caught rolling meat and the eel of around 1.5lb also took the meat. Wildlife was phenomenal, my thanks to the owner for a super little beat.

A short mid morning session which was ruined by a seemingly endless train of canoeists intent on beaching on any gravel area and making as much noise as possible, these particular people had zero respect for the river, it's wildlife and anglers.
Having pointed out on 2 separate occasions that they were in fact trespassing and that the wye Valley is not a public toilet I was met with the usual verbal abuse.!
A poignant reminder why I tend to avoid fishing the wye in the summer months.

River extremely low but caught steadily all day. Lost 3 or 4 as well. Barbel were all between 4-6 pound and chub 3-4 pound. Other was a nice sized eel. Made up for the blank, the previous day, at How Caple Court.

Having fished 2 days I believe this beat should be closed until water levels rise. Canoes are a problem they get stuck . Lack of water. If I had known before I would have postponed my trip having driven 300 mile round trip. The river near Ross has decent water to fish .

Water level very low and gin clear the canoes were painful getting stuck and paddling in the swim.

Once again it was nice to be on the river, with this being my fellow angler's first trip to Foy. Weather wise, we had the perfect day and although the water level was low there were enough spots to target. We both fished from the nearside bank at the last peg, where we caught 14 chub and 1 barbel. I moved to the middle peg and caught 5 chub and a last cast barbel. I also caught the other from this peg, which was an eel.
We used a variety of hook baits with halibut pellets and halibut luncheon meat being the most successful for 90% of the landed fish, which were all in lovely condition and actually unhooked in the net in the water.
