Another great Wye day. Arrived to find the river 4 foot up and coloured but dropping.
Fished pellet/feeder and caught consistently throughout the day ending with 30 fish between us to 10lbs 1oz.

Unfortunately the river had risen by approx 2feet and carried a lot of colour, the fishing was hard and only two fish were landed both Barbel the first to Roger and the second to Paul which weighed in at 8 pounds 12 oz and in fine fettle. we called it a day at around 4.00pm and went to the pub.
Fished Courtfield before and will fish it again.

Fished peg 2 from early morning until approx 2:00pm when all my bait was used up! During the day I landed 7 barbel to 10lb 6oz ( a personal best. All other barbel were in the 7-8lb stamp. Also had 3 decent size chub. All caught during torrential rainstorm. Don very helpful and informative. Can't wait to go back.

7 barbel to 7lb and a small chub. Spent to much time looking for the parking at the Severn Trent water complex, it is now Costain (builders). As with all 5 beats we fished, we felt a few signs would help. Nice stretch, will be going back.

Fished in the meadow stretch as we had been advised by Don that the river was still a little high for the woods swims. River fining down and looked almost perfect but fishing was very slow compared with yesterdays results. Finished with 6 barbel and 11 chub topped by a 9lb 13oz barbel at about 7pm. A lovely looking stretch of river in a very tranquil setting. Will certainly return. Thanks again to Don for his help and encouragement.

Fished in meadow due to higher than normal water level preventing fishing in my favourite wooded section. Several barbel to just over 8lb. Pellet, boilie and groundbait feeder tactics.

Well had one of the "those days" on this beat. I arrived to find the river about 5ft above normal. It had peaked on the Saturday about 10 ft above normal. I soon found a swim in the meadow with a good walking pace flow. During the morning caught 13 barbel to 8lbs 11oz plus 3 chub.
Moved swims after getting to this uncomfortable number. Second cast in the new swim produced a barbel. This was followed by 5 more to 9lbs 2oz. The fish certainly fought well in the extra flow. All the fish were caught on pellet. So 19 barbel and 3 chub was indeed a "red letter day". Looking forward to my other sessions I've got booked. Thanks as ever to Don for a beautiful fishery.

River still at 5ft above normal level so fishing the meadow the only option. First swim fished produced 1 barbel around the 3lb mark so moved mid afternoon to a lower swim, this produced 2 Barbel best 9lb 8oz and 1 Chub. All fish taken on halibut pellet. Thanks to Don for his advice.

First ever session on this beat. River was 8 feet up but starting to drop back. Fished peg 4 with 4oz feeder approx three rod lengths out and parallel with downstream tree. Two big (4lb plus) chub were followed by 4 barbel all around the 8lb mark. Popped home for lunch then returned to fish peg 3 which produced a good brace of barbel at 8lb 7 oz and 9lb 4oz. Returning on thursday for further "education". Lovely venue, reasonable parking and Don is just such a helpful chap.

No fish caught, river up 6 foot and rose another 2 foot through the day Don the ballif was very helpfull. Will be back soon hopefully when river not so full.
