Feedback & Reports

2nd day on this beat the weed coming through had reduced and we had a far better days fishing. I finished with 6 Barbel from 7lb to 9lb 10 oz and Martin had 3, best 10 lb. All fish came to meat baits fished with heavy feeders. We fished several swims along the beat and caught from them all.

9 Barbel

Arrived mid morning and decided to fish the top section.
Fished mainly with pellet and caught 3 barbel with the biggest being 12lb 5oz, a PB on the Wye. This particular fish had a large, what seemed to be growth, on one side so not sure what that could have been. The other 2 barbel ranged between 8 & 9lb.
A lovely part of the Wye with good access and parking, will definitely return to this beat.

3 Barbel

Rectory neck - pool ("Just around the corner").
12 Noon. 12lbs Hen - slightly coloured, high condition. No.8 Long-tailed Thunder (Franks). Floating line. Water surprisingly clear. 52°F. 1' 2". Bright/ light showers

Very difficult with very easily spooked fish. The water level was low and flowing clear with mainly bright sunshine and an occasional down stream breeze all combined to make life difficult. A few fish were rising so I tried duo and pricked two fish with the nymph. A single nymph proved ineffective. A notice down stream of the fish farm would be helpful.

3x rainbow trout, all caught on spinner, fish all around 2lb mark. I counted 8 cormorants,4 goosanders in my corner of the res.They are breeding on these waters, and will end up on the rivers killing the wild fish.
