Feedback & Reports

Trotted maggots (red most successful) accounted for over thirty grayling, of which three were over two pounds. A few WBT caught as well. First time at this beat. We will be back.

11 Grayling and 1 out of season brown trout.

Caught around 30 Grayling to 1.5lbs, 6 Brown Trout to 1lb plus 1 Chub of approximately 4lbs on maggot and sweetcorn trotted under a float. A great days sport. Could you include grid references or postcodes on beat instructions for those of us who use Sat Navs.

Did not land any fish

Nice quiet spot with easy parking and access however not worth fishing until the level drops a couple of feet. I was told in a local tackle shop, and also thought myself, that the upper Wye drops off quite quickly after a flood, anyway two days since any rain and the water level didnt drop an inch from dawn till dusk. Two small trout, wouldnt even think about wading, maybe try white water rafting next time!

Water high & still very brown today but as there were wadable & open bank sections, we did fish it pretty thoroughly to no avail. Did find a sheltered bend with a shoal of grayling which were fun on dry flies-fish to 1 1/4 lbs.

Ideal conditions with the water level just below the croys, however didn't see any salmon nor catch any.

River low and clear. Fished hard with no sign of Salmon all day. Good sport with Grayling; caught over 10 in 2hrs on a single dry fly I found in the boot of my car. Hey, why bother with other thousand flies left home if this one works?!

Saw fish moving in Lady Alexander's catch but could not get them to take.

Our last day on this trip and we would like to thank the girls in the office for suggesting this beat. We fished it from 9am until 2pm so we didn't manage to fish the whole beat as well as we would have liked to, but the fishing was fantastic. We caught numerous trout and grayling,again nothing massive ,but lots of fun, especially the grayling. Biggest grayling was about 3/4 lb and best trout about 1lb. I would like to add that we stayed in a B&B in Glasbury (Aberllynfi House). It overlooked the Wye and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast sets you up for the day!!! Strongly recommended.
Many thanks again to The W and U girls!!
