1 x 15lb Salmon Cock fish coloured safely released. Caught on Ally Shrimp size 10 on little run.
Excellent service from the Foundation, first time on the Wye!

Bright sun shine & a low river meant it was going to be a hard day. Morning - 2 rods fishing top meadow on the island, one on the feeder one on the float. The feeder rod had a nil catch, with plenty of dace and chub on the float. Third rod went roving middle meadow.
1pm - 5pm, 3 rods in middle meadow, one small barbel and 3 chub on pellet for one rod. Lots of small dace, chublets and roach on maggots for the other two rods.
5pm walk back to top meadow, 3 rods in one swim for a chat and coffee thinking of going due to no sign of fish and poor river condisions. 6pm and at last some cloud cover - what a difference. Finished fishing at 8pm with 3 rods casting all over the river taking a total of 20 barbel and 4 chub.

What an end to the day. My best fishing experience ever. Sugwas is a lovely beat - we didnt see a soul all day. Can't wait until How Caple Court next weekend.

21 barbel to 8lbs, approx 30 chub to 5lbs. Fantastic days fishing in great surroundings, all caught on pellets and sweetcorn. Many thanks to Colin Richardson for puting us in the right spot!

Gorgeous morning - til the rain started falling! River started colouring up significantly during the morning, and by mid afternoon was a chocolate torrent. No salmon caught - a couple seen as the water started to rise.

Three small trout on small dark klinkhammers, distance catch and release :). Quite a bit of fly life lots of needle flies, no rising fish though. Lovely stream but found the livestock barriers strung across the river very difficult to straddle and I'm 6'3" in fact I gave up on one set and called it a day. But all in all an enjoyable day. just one other point the track just before the bridge for parking is very deeply rutted and I feared ripping off my front bumper.

There was a strong downstream wind when we arrived. Periods of sunshine and cloud gave us a pleasant morning despite the wind. We caught 7 fish to 3/4lb on small tungsten PTN. At lunchtime the wind had moderated but heavy showers arrived. At about 4pm a sporadic rise started and we caught a further 12 fish mainly about 8"-10" on size 16 Parachute Adams, which the fish took with gusto! Two wet, cold but happy anglers set of a 6.15pm for the long drive home. Great fun !

No salmon seen or caught may have been better switching to fly rod for trout.

1 brown trout 1lb landed and returned, two others lost. Fishing very good wading tricky in places. Overall a lovely day..

River high and fast flowing, overcast with showers. Single graying of 10" caught towards bottom of beat with light-coloured nymph on quick-sinking leader. A lovely stretch of river and look forward to returning next year.

Very small fish. All returned
