Largest barbel 10lb 12oz
Largest chub 5lb 40z

Had to rotate swims as it seemed you would get a quick fish then nothing. Could go back an hour later and nick another.

Hooked something that I had on for 35 minutes! If it was a barbel it was huge. Felt very very heavy. Slowly took line working its way down stream about 50m! Could do nothing to stop it. Would hold in the flow for a while but if I tried to get any line back it would set off downstream again and just take more. I’m guessing a carp or salmon?... If not it was by far the biggest barbel I’ve ever hooked. I was worried I would run out of line!

A beautiful blank

Arrived quite late in very heavy rain which made a difficult session. I fished a mix of micropelet and crushed boilies in a feeder with a paste wrapped dumbbell on the hook. After moving swims, in an hour of dry weather, I had 2 small chub around 3 lb.

Afternoon evening session. Torrential rain which made the banks do slippy a lot of pegs were too dangerous to fish even though they do have steps. Concentrated on bottom half. Lost a very big barbel at the net, then second 9lb 9oz others were small around 6lb mark. Chub just thrown in. Had to keep moving when the peg became too slippy, from ne moving around to a fresh one. All on feeder, groundbait abd mixed pellets and 8m hinders ellipse barrels on the hook.

Wye was rising after a few days of welcome steady rain.
Fished 11.00am right through to sunset.Used sweetcorn and meat with an open end feeder. Also a rolling lead bumped across the stream. No snags. Fished two swims either side of tree line. 7 Chub best 5lbs 1oz ....3 Barbel best 7lbs 3ozs and 1 eel on meat at end. I could not buy a bite on pellet. Landowner encouraged me to park down by the river which was excellent on this July day.Met the gamekeeper who was very friendly and helpful. A lovely peaceful day by this glorious river.
