Feedback & Reports

Two rods fished, seven barbel ranging from 5 to 9lb and seven chub from 2 to 4lb between us. All fish in immaculate condition taken on pellets and meat. Good directions from WUF and a beautiful place to fish. Many thanks.

Rod 1, 15 + Chub to 5lb on Meat, most in hectic 45 minutes in the evning. Rod 2, 4 Barbel best 8lb 5oz, several Chub best over 3lbs all on boilies.

River running clear on a nice sunny day. Unfortunately the fishing was a little slow and I finished the day with 2 small Barbel. Tried a number of swims around the orchard end but only one spot produced the fish. Will be back again soon.

A beatiful stretch of river, although it would be good to have a few more swims made. Caught 3 Barbel and 2 Chub.

4 barbel to 9lb on boillies. Boiling hot so just the evening fished for a few hours.

First time on Wye and Usk Foundation water and will be returning again! Fished the meadow below the orchid, angler 1 unfortunatly didnt catch, angler 2 had 5 barbel up to 7 1/2lbs and 2 chub on halibut pellets, and angler 3 being myself had 7 barbel biggest weighing 9lbs, 2 at 8lbs 1 of 7lbs and also 6 chub ranging from 3lbs to 5lbs. All fish were caught on boilies.

Sat 21st July: 9 Barbel to 7lbs 14oz, 2 Chub and a (PB?) 10oz Dace. Fish fed better in the morning than later on.

Sun 22nd July: A much tougher day, the hot sun seemed to put the barbel off. Decided to fish a new swim at the bottom end, managed to take 4 Barbel, a Chub, a couple of Dace and a nice suntan.

River conditions perfect but only managed to catch 1 barbel around 6lb on pellet. I only managed to fish in the afternoon and it was very hot and sunny.
It is a lovely stretch of river and I will return to fish it again early morning and late evening when I'm sure it will be more productive.

8 barbel caught between two of us, biggest 8Ibs 5oz. A beautiful stretch of river with plenty of great looking areas to fish. All fish caught on pellets.

The river had risen with yesterdays heavy rain being 5ft up and swim selection was very limited. Despite 4 of us fishing all day we only managed 2 barbel between us - very dissappointing as normally find fish feeding well in such conditions.
