Wet fly fishing. Overcast with brief spells of sunlight. River clear and in good condition. One fish hooked but lost immediately. No sign of fish rising.

This is a very attractive stretch of the Wye but a long walk from the car park and a tricky one to find safe swims on, especially in the very high water conditions with large trees, branches and weed rafts coming down. We could only fish the near edge with 180g feeders and braid using floodwater rods and were pleased to find a few barbel.

Great day out. Some good barbel caught on pellet and feeder. River up about 1m and rising during the day. Great to see the smaller barbel coming through.

Hard to find the right gates on the farm . Farmer kindly let us drive down the river bank to deeper water and away from the noisy pump. All on pellets

Good weather and water about .65m with colour. Elected to spin and landed a nice 9lb hen at rock. John also had a nice fish at the top pool. Both coloured and returned safely. John also had a half pound brown on a quill minnow which was also returned ok
