Arrived at 12, walked the stretch for one hour, fished side by side in swim. Left most tackle in car and travelled light, one landing net, one seat, one angler sat on the unhooking mat. Big mistake! Needed two landing nets as we often had fish on at the same time. Fished pellet feeder, biggest barbel 9lb, biggest Chub just over 5.4lbs. What a great afternoon and what a great fishery. Sorry the report's late but only got home on Sat after a fantastic week on river.

Tough going during the day fish only starting feeding around 7pm. Timebomb method with a variety of hookbaits.

Slow start to the day, some barbel still spawning but good to be sitting next to the beautiful Wye. Barbel turned on mid afternoon with 12 caught fairly quickly plus an eel. Many thanks WUF.

Another nice day at Sugwas Court. Two of us fished one swim and shared one rod for the majority of the session as it was a tight one but we knew the fish would be there.
Fished double 10mm elips pellets, size 8 hook and 1.25 oz lead, 10lb line. Very basic set up. No feeders today, feeding pellet with the catapult. The fish came steady through the day with the odd longer wait for a bite. Best barbel weighed 8lb12oz.
One of my favourite beats. Heard a cuckoo today for the first time in a couple of years too.

Great day at Sugwas. Fish were a little spooky, however everyone managed to have a good haul.

Fished early and late 6am ~ 11am and then 6pm ~ 9pm on lower section of beat. Found top section upstream of orchard through the woods impossible to fish.

Not the best day's fishing we've had on here. Plenty of fish visible but we just couldn't them feeding consistently. A recommendation for the Portway Inn, an ideal base for the WUF waters NW of Hereford, good food, comfortable & reasonably priced rooms and Wye Valley bitter at £3/pint!

Day one of our 5 day trip found the river low and clear with an unseasonably cold wind blowing. Fish were difficult to catch but a few were tempted by various pellets and boilies in the field downstream of the wood.

River was clear but looked great. I had barbel up to 9lb 1oz which was one of the best looking barbel I've ever caught. All fish apart from one barbel were caught between 9.00am and 6.00pm. Ledgered boilies and pellet.
