Feedback & Reports

Only two of us fished today, but we had an excellent day on a falling river as we caught 12 Barbel and 6 Chub. 3 Barbel were over 9lb and 1 was over 10lb. Happy Dayz!

12 Barbel, 6 Chub

No luck with float fishing, three chub succumbed to rolling meat tactics. Fished for four hours in beautiful surroundings.

River was dropping off but Still plenty of colour and the sun was shining. Had 1 small chub and a Barbel of 3.8lb this was mid morning on feeder double krill 6mm dumbell. Nothing more until evening session where I had 2 chub biggest around 3.8lb then 2 more Barbel up to 5lb again on krill. Was hoping for another but as the river was on the way down chub was attacking the feeder which left nothing for the barbel. Still amazing day amazing settings.

3 Barbel, 3 Chub

The river was a foot up coloured and falling and looked perfect.we fished the swims at the top of the fishery and all caught lots of chub in the 3 to 5 lb catagory plus two eels. The barbel however were not obliging with only two between us. Overall an excellent day’s fishing in a beautiful setting.

Strong, cold downstream wind seemed to suppress the hatches. A few rising fish beneath sycamores saved the day. There are now cows, calves and a bull in the field, but they were placid enough.

A cold westerly breeze kept the fish down with but a few feeding on midge,BWO and Olive Uprights. Access remains a struggle and winter floods have created some steep bank drops to a summer low river.
Best fish was probably nudging 3lb but my photography skills does not do it justice.

The River had dropped at least a foot but was still quite colored,7 Chub the biggest weighed 3.5lb

Not really worth getting your boots wet. Most of the beat is unfishable. Very shallow even after heavy rain. Most deep pools are completely covered by trees. I have fished wild streams for 20 years and am used to obstructions but this is just not worth the bother. I would say wading is quite challenging due to the river bed being strewn with slippery boulders.

An overcast day with a north wind. Some fish showing but no consistent rise.

Picked the wrong day for my trip to the Teifi pools. I arrived at 09:30 over cast and a stiff northly breeze,the temperature 8 degrees. By lunch time it had risen to 10 and when I left it had fallen back to 8. no sign of of fly life and the only fish I saw rise was the couple that splash at my flies
