Fished evening session, good place to take my son to catch his first river barbel. River was up a bit but not coloured. Fished bottom pool. Feeder and pellet halfway across. Needed 3 oz to hold due to extra flow. Majority of fish were 8 oz to 1.5 lb. Biggest 5.5 lb which my son caught so nice pic for the album. Hopefully the large stocks of small fish mean the wye will be a good barbel river for years to come. I normally fish the Yorkshire rivers where it is unusual to see a barbel under 3 lb and you are fishing for one or two fish a session.

A lovely day on the Wye, although the fish weren't exactly climbing up the line as in recent reports! Three of the barbel were around the 1lb mark, which is a good sign for the future. I ended the day catching a new PB chub and losing what felt like a large barbel, but went home happy and can't wait to fish the Wye again.
