4 chub (3 - 3.5lbs)+ 2 eels caught by one angler a couple of swims down from the pumping station on medium elipse pellets - (first time I have lip hooked two eels consecutively!). Angler 2 fished the fast water at the lower end of the fishery and did not get a touch. Water levels very low as expected and probably not conducive to barbel feeding during the day.
Two anglers fished the opposite bank to the fast water at the bottom end of the fishery until lunchtime. Presumably these anglers were sold day tickets or were guests of the landowner/farmer. This did limit swims we could fish on the day.
4 Chub, 2 Other

Another lovely beat with some nice swims, unfortunately the fish didn't want to know. One barbel of about 3 pounds caught late on, maybe if we had stayed later we could have caught a few more, but after a full day in the heat, a few cold beers and a nice meal at the Greenman at Fownhope (highly recommended) seemed more appealing. Look forward to returning to this beat in more favourable conditions.
1 Barbel

Only fished the afternoon and evening, 1 barbel about 12 ozs and 2 small chub. Fished 6 pegs at the lower end of the fishery. Just couldn't get them to feed. Lovely place and a great day. Weed did prove to be a bit of a problem.

Very hot blazing sunshine made fishing difficult, location and bait choice important. Sweetcorn worked for me and I had 6 barbel and 1 chub including 2 lovely baby barbel - future looks good.

Fished 2pm til 9:30pm. Scorching hot, no wind or breeze to take the edge off the heat. Patchy during the day with Chub taken on the float and Barbel on pellet in the evening.
River quite low. Lovely beat, will return.

We have now fished 4 of the Wye & Usk venues, all of them in stunning surroundings. Unfortunately the weather was against us being the hottest week this year and the river its lowest for 4 years. We all had our 1st blank today, it was rock hard.
But we will be back.

Usual pellet method on a feeder from lunch until late evening seeking barbel. No show - we both blanked sadly. It was very hot. A very beautiful part of the river and unlike previous visitors we felt there were sufficient swims. A fisherman on the opposite bank caught 23 barbel (or so he said!) but in the morning from 9am until 12pm which, considering the heat was the better decision.
