A very warm sunny day; river up a touch with a bit of colour. We all fished the top field from lunchtime onwards, and bites came in 3 defined feeding periods, with the best naturally around sunset. All fish were 5 or 6lbs except one 7. All on pellet feeder.
Beware of dog walkers and their urge to repeatedly throw sticks into the river for their dogs to fetch. Some are apologetic, some are not ('you've got all day to fish here' and 'you can fish anywhere') etc. Best to be as obvious to passers-by as you can - not easy in the overgrown banks.
On a hot day you can refill your water bottles in the sports pavilion toilets.

18 Barbel, 1 Chub

Beautiful location unfortunately, never caught. Just a couple of issues I like to point out - the swims are very dangerous for the angler, access being one and the steepness makes it difficult at times. At Middle Hill Court my brother actually went into the river and managed to to scramble out luckily enough because being further down the bank I didn't hear him go in. This is just to inform you of the difficulty we had so this end up with someone drowning. This did not spoil our fishing on your beautiful stretch of the river and will definitely be coming back,thank you again for a wonderful couple of days.
WUF Note: All riverbanks can be dangerous, especially when wet. We urge all anglers to take extreme care when fishing, whether on the Wye or any other river. If you prefer Wye fisheries with easy access, please contact the Booking Office for advice on 01874 712 074.

Fished in the wood, the first swim produced 2 chub before a move slightly downstream to another swim. This produced 1 barbel (8lb 14oz)with another lost when it cut the line on the rocks and another 2 chub best 4lb 8oz. All in all a hard day in terrible weather with all the fish showing signs of being caught recently.

1 Barbel, 4 Chub
