Very warm day but found the fish feeding and took Barbel to 9lb 9 and chub between 2 and 4lb. An eel on pellet, which was a first. Heavy river traffic all day and evening with swimmers, canoes, paddle-boards, inflatables, dogs, babies. All friendly, but eventually the sport died with barely a sniff after 5pm.

Second visit this week ended with 7 chub all around the same size good quality chub and enjoyable.
Again though looked like it was either poached at night as swim had evidence of a fire/BBQ meat containers left and a pile of bottles and beer cans.
Around 11 o’clock it became like the M25 of canoes but have to say it don’t effect the fishing apart from the odd clueless person being to close in or asking for cigarettes.
Still enjoyed my days fishing just think it needs more bailiffs activity or they will destroy the wye/fishery.

Yes another good evening. Can’t fish during day because of canoes . They are awful with such bad behaviour and lack of respect for anglers. So 4-30 pm is the time to miss them
3 lbs and 7 lbs barbel . Chub to 3 lbs eels to 2 lbs

But I would not fish it again , that hill has to steep an incline and not worth the risk of getting stuck . Need 4 x 4 to feel safe
To get up it . Shame .

Conditions picked up had 1 barbel then all the canoeists started coming down which just killed the fishing completely they don’t have any consideration for anglers screaming shouting going through lines/swims jumping out of the canoes etc just an absolute bizmel you couldn’t even cast in, waste of time really & travel
