Feedback & Reports

Although the river is my favourite place to fish and would love to be able to fish it on a regular basis my day on Saturday was a blank session due to the river being crystal clear and very low!
After walking the whole section to locate some barbel to target rather than fishing blind I eventually came across a nice looking deeper glide with barbel holding nicely in it but unfortunately another angler had beat me to it and was fishing there already from the other bank !
I did manage to find another very small group of fish in shallow water but as soon as I introduced a tiny amount of bait they spooked away never to be seen again !
Apart from my fishless trip I hope to return soon as its such a magical place

River low and clear. Several nice looking swims fished but both rods blanked. Spectacular scenery and great banks for sleeping! Fished with pellet and little optimism.
Excellent service from W&U.

A very cloudy but warm day. Fishing very challenging but got 3 Barbel between 5lb and 8lb and nice a chub to just over 3lb. A difficult day but always a pleasure to fish a beautiful river. Canoeists were very polite and helpful today as well a big bonus.

3 Barbel, 1 Chub

The river looked very low for this beat and it proved tough going. Sadly we had to leave early so missed the best part if the day given the conditions.

River was running quite clear. Overcast day. 5 chub upto 5lbs. Plenty of roaming required. Lovely section of the river, will be coming back.

Great venue. Caught two large Chub in top stretch just after dawn on pellet. Moved to middle stretch midday and found some nice swims for generally smaller Chub (not included in figures due to volumes) but peppered with a couple of Roach and a nice Perch as swim built up. Larger Chub caught here on changing to meat but pellet produced only knocks. A lot of water to cover in a day and some great potential that we would like to exploit at a later date when we have more time. Salmon seen jumping in swims and suspected that one smashed through a meat bait. Thank you for keeping this river so healthy.

Fished Sugwas Court with a friend for two days. Enjoyable fishing. Salmon regularly crashing around as well.

9 Barbel, 7 Chub

The river was holding just enough colour for the barbel to feed and we managed a few. Didn't fish on into the evening and probably would have caught more if we had stayed. Total 4 barbel, 2 chub.

Ideal high water, coloured conditions. 10 barbel and 1 chub caught early and late, with slow periods in between.

The river was very low and clear so we decided to fish the lower field opposite the house. Not much interest from the fish until the sun was off the water and we had a couple of Barbel to 9.5 pounds and a Chub. All caught on pellet. Sugwas is a lovely beat and we thoroughly enjoyed our day. It would fish much better with a bit more water on it.
