Most of the action in the morning, from early afternoon on a noticeably rising river very difficult to get any interest at all . Fish taken with meat on feeder and bread on the float. Barbel, 7lb. 8oz., 9lb., and some good sized Chub, the others were Eels. Frustratingly, two Barbel and a couple of hefty Chub lost to hook pulls. 4 fished.

A very nice day for all 3 off us. A big thanks to Stephan not just for this visit but also our 2 previous visits. The Do's and Do not's very much appreciated. His help makes the day more enjoyable.

8 barbel all ranged from 6-9lb, which is a good stamp for the Wye and 3 lost in snags. 27 Chub 1-5lb. All caught throughout day.

Got caught out by the fast rising water, alright until all the Summer’s debris started moving down the river, It was a branch a cast by early afternoon. I would be cautious on the mud track after rain. Glynn, the ghillie, was very helpful.

We only fished the afternoon and with a rising river with debris going through made it tricky, we was however rewarded with a low double figure barbel and some clonking chub over 5+ lb in fading light.

Gave up fishing the two pegs on the left bank as they were pretty unsafe and moved to the opposite side with the waders and a pin / float rod.

Had a great afternoons sport on the meat trotting the inside crease with the odd random cast in the middle.

Back on the feeder (garlic pellet) for the last hour of the day and a large barbel was lost at the last knockings.

A beautiful spot and I’m glad we took float gear as it was the best way to fish it. The owl was hooting and tooting as we left.
