Rained all day but fishing was good throughout. Drive back up the hill afterwards was hairy without 4x4 and we had to leave one car on the bank overnight. Lots of varied water to choose from but so disappointing that access to much of it is impossible. The long meadow section at the start of the beat is about 10' above the water with no way of landing a fish. This puts added pressure on the few recognisable swims and these were very muddy as a result of the weather and frequent use.

Early start river was colured and dropping fished a feeder size 10 hook feeding plenty of hemp. No big Chub all around the 3lb mark but did have some decent Barbel.

Great day on the river. Ross reading was 0.800 and falling. Plenty of colour in the river. Started out sunny , then clouded over with showers. 4 barbel , 2 between 7-8lbs 1 at 9lbs and one just over 10lbs.
4 chub caught , all around 3-4lbs except 1 which was a PB at 6lb 1oz biggest chub I’ve caught by a long shot!
All caught on 14mm pellets, cheesy garlic, krill and spicy sausage………..didn’t seem to matter. Also used cheesy garlic groundbait.

Very different conditions to the previous day. We started later in the day and the fishing was slightly slower. I focussed on trying to catch a barbel on the float which was challenging with the amount of water still pushing through but I managed it in the end.

Tricky conditions with the river rising quickly throughout the day and near constant rain. Still managed plenty of fish with only 3 of us fishing. Great fun in a stunning place.

Had an early start fed several swims and fished a running rig set up kept on the move had my personnel best Wye Barbel and a stonkin chub of 6lb all caught using 10mm Hallibut pellets hair rigged on a size 12 Guru mgw. The climb upthe hill is a killer but well worth it all in all a great day and I had the beat to myself.

Slow days fishing. 3 chub and 1 eel caught. Weather was extremely wet. River was slightly up with a nice colour. Road exiting the fishery was extremely slippery with both vehicles having to be pushed up the hill upon exit.
