Feedback & Reports

Arrived at Wye Bank at 11am, to find river approximately 3 ft up and a nice redy brown colour. Myself and my friend John fished the two swims behind the first 2 cribs, in the slacker water on the inside run. We had a total of 8 Barbel, 5 Chub and 1 eel.

Sunday 1st July - River had dropped to approximately 2ft started fishing 5pm, we had a total of 9 Barbel and 13 Chub.

Thanks to Don, very helpful.

Two trout about 14inch and two small trout all returned river was too high and too coloured for good trout fishing also wading was impossible.

Have caught seven between two of us. 2 on the spinner, 5 on the worm.

River was fishable but high. We managed 1 barbel each between 6 and 7lbs and many chubb ranging from 3-4lbs.

River was high and dropping however it was quite dirty.
Salmon seen but none interested in my selection of flies, except for a large brown trout, which I returned.

2 rainbow trout caught, both 1.5lb and both on the worm.

2 x BT - 12 and 14 inch both on dry Adams Klinkhammer.
Water pushing through faster than I expected and strong down stream wind didn't help.

10lb cock fish, caught this afternoon on spinner in Llyn Estyn Fach pool at Newbridge. Water was quite coloured early on.

River up 2 1/2 ft and very coloured. Finished the day with 12 barbel and 5 chub, the majority coming in a crazy 1 1/2 hour. This beat is probably the best I have fished for access to a large number of swims. Don, the owner, very helpful.

15 barbel 5 chub on pellet and meat.
