Tough day, the conditions weren't great. The River was falling but still high and it was blowing a gale, tried for a few hours but gave up. Good stretch though, plenty of fishable pegs

Very tough conditions as river levels very high, between us we managed 2 barbel and 2 eels. Will be back when the levels are a lot lower!

Concentrated on the top half of the fishery with the current level. Fished 4 different swims with pellet & meat. One bite early evening to meat.

River still in flood conditions, very coloured water and fast flowing. Fished with heavy feeders to hold bottom, utilising a variety of hook baits including, boilie, sausage and cheese flavoured halibut pellets along with pepparami sausage. Chub taken on cheese flavoured halibut pellet.

Fished for salmon on Ashford Bend and Beech Pool but nothing happening, about midday the wind rose and the rain moved in so retired for lunch. The Usk Valley was looking beautiful, though Autumn closing in, maybe a chance for salmon over the next week or two when the water clears as the river has been high for a decent amount of time. Tight lines to others.

Good day for 2 anglers in the accessible swims in the upper section, the lower section did not have any accessible areas. When the river is at the level it was, this beat cannot accommodate 4 anglers. Barbel went to 7lb 8oz, chub to 5lb 2oz.
Didn't appreciate the flail hedge cutter being used a couple of yards away from us, with debris flying dangerously close.
