8 fish caught, a combination of Chub and Barbel with the largest Barbel being 7lb. A big Pike lives on this beat. The access road down to the fishery from the car parking area is in a poor state, park up and then a 15min walk to the beat.

River a couple of feet up and holding. 11 barbel (from 3lb to 8lb) and a couple of chub caught. All fish came from either the pool at the bottom of the beat or the well trodden peg in the middle before the line of poplars. All fish caught on halibut pellet.

Rod 1 - 4 Barbel 7-8lb.
Rod 2 - 2 Barbel 7lb, 3 Chub.

1 small trout on maqggot - returned (only bite). River high but not too discoloured.

Started above Rock Pool and had a hen fish of about 13lb on back /gold Flying C. Single hook for easy release. Fished through Rock Pool with no result so went below bridge [Bridge Stream Fishery) and had a 10lb cock fish again releasd. Fished Scottish Dee last week for 1 fish. Grass is not always greener!

I came, I saw...and that was about it! Water was a bit high but nice colour, but didn't see a fish all day, which was surprising.

Fished lower stretch, caught 2 barbel, 6lb 4oz and 6lb 12oz on pellet It was a pleasure to fish this superb stretch of river.

River 2.5 feet and dropping. We all fished where we did yesterday. The bottom swims produced 6 barbel and 4 chub, all average Wye size and all on pellet. The island swim produced one barbel of 7lb.

On the water at 9am, 4 brown trout caught and released on a Brown Goldhead Nymph and 1 grayling caught on an Olive CDC. Later level up and slightly coloured but a lovely mornings fishing, the otter I saw seemed to be ejoying himself aswell! Left river at 2pm.

Second time on river Wye. Arrived at 7.30am. Temperature 3 degrees celsius. River was flooded, water level high and the speed super fast. 4oz feeder would not stay in the place where I wanted until hit some rock. I started near to Luggsmouth. I tried to cast to place where water flow was little bit slower. Stayed there till 2pm. Nothing there. Then I moved near to the fishing hut and finally I caught my first Barbel ever 5lbs/64cm. Soon after first came second, 5lbs/68cm. Later 1 chub. Then everything get quiet. Nice place, long walk from the carpark, but ok for me. If you have 4x4 you could drive near to the river I guess. Be careful when leaving, impossible to see to the right. I will be back one day.
