Feedback & Reports

River up, rising and coloured but perfect conditions. A lovely beat. Decided to walk down after reading previous reports of difficulty getting back up in a car. Walk back up hill is hard work! Fish falling to pellet and meat, and some of the best barbel caught from the Wye. Will be back in summer.

A rather soggy day, but still good fun even though the fish were quite difficult to find. We decided not to take the car down the hill today, so we were faced with a tough walk in and out, but it taught us to travel light!

Another tough day with high water levels, but we managed a couple of our targeted species. The mud at the bottom of the track down to the fishery provided us with a sporting end to the day getting our car back up.

5 barbel from two rods fishing early afternoon to evening. Three six pounders, one big seven and biggest 8.6. All on meadow swims past dead tree. Agree with previous comments about track down to car park. On our way back we did have to take several attempts to get up the hill - in dry conditions (not a 4x4). Would rather park by gate and have a long walk and a bit less stress after a good afternoons fishing..

fished the dead tree swim, struggled to hold bottom on times, switching to a 5oz + feeder did help, on times there was alot of debris collecting on the line, all in all it was just nice to get out on the bank. 2 Barbel landed, 5 fish lost, damped pellets forced into the feeder / a stodgy grounbait mix with hemp used switching between the two, And dumbell hookbaits on the hair. All Hinders range. the banks a very slippery so be careful to anyone venturing out.

Favourable weather between all the rain. River well up but fished ok. 3 barbel and 4 good size chub on a mixture of pellet and meat, plus other smaller chub,dace,bleak and the odd kamikaze minnow! Nice stretch - could do with a few more swims

3 Barbel, 4 Chub

Water very high due to heavy rain, very limited swim availability ,three anglers caught six barbel between us to 9lb, all caught using meat close in. Just a note ,think twice about driving down to car park if you do not have a 4x4 vehicle
