A tough but enjoyable day on the river running well over a metre higher than normal. Only one or two swims available where feeders / leads could hold in the slacks. We think this is probably a better summer venue given lack of high water swims. Nonetheless the weather was good on the day and we will be back next year!

River was well up and pushing through hard, banks were extremely slippery, hazardous really, almost impossible to find anywhere to fish. Only 2 anglers attempted to fish, not sure exactly what is classed as a wash off?, a very difficult day. Hardly worth the 5 hours travelling time.

Finished the season with yet another blank. This is without doubt the worse season in 30 years of having a boat permit up the Usk and next season will be worse again as no boat fishing is allowed next year due to essential work being carried out on the boat launching area.

River was at 2.2m all day and bombing through. The pegs at the top end were not fishable but the first 2 fields still had plenty of pegs. We rotated the pegs and caught decent chub throughout the day, not sure why we didn’t get any barbel as it looked good for them.

The river was still really high and powering through. it was the first time I have fished the Wye in these conditions.
I set up in one of the few swims where there was slack water and caught a chub a rod length out within four minutes of starting to fish. However, after that, it all went downhill fast. I ended up in a snag every cast. Sometimes I got away with just the loss of a hook, sometimes it was a feeder or lead. I can't wait till the summer levels so I can see what was devouring all my tackle.
I decided to cast a 5oz feeder downstream and much further out. I found I could hold bottom and caught two more chub and two barbel, one of which got away. (Hinders Barbel Bomb did the trick.) A very enjoyable day overall but the ground became increasingly slippery as the day wore on.
1 Barbel, 3 Chub
