Not for me this one, will not be returning, 100m of bank for fly is not a suitable fishery for me and that part had a rod out every 10m drowning worms. Water very coloured as quite a lot of rain has fallen,

Very hard. No bites until 2.00 and then nothing after 4.00pm. Water perfect but very cold.

Thoroughly enjoyable day: a new beat for me and managed to catch a few! The river was clearly up a bit from summer low after last weekend's storm, but water was clear enough. As noted in other returns, although there are access points it is quite wild, with steep banks covered with dense growth, and while wading was fine where the water level was low enough, there are many sections too deep to wade at this water level. I loved it, but I'm perfectly happy scrambling about a bit. Grayling 8-11", OOS trout were very nice, 3 fine specimens at 13-14", although of course I barely noticed, returning them post-haste. Last trout from nearer top of beat was a 16" stockie - see pic - with a faint blue spot in the middle of its underbelly. Presumably from some neighbouring club?

A pleasant autumn day, with the river more or less back to normal level and clear. All the fish fell to pellet feeder, though other methods were tried, including rolled meat.

Lovely quiet stretch of the Wye, fishing all caught on beat 1 above the bridge

Flow was strong, speaking to other anglers not much had been caught. Beautiful scenery though

Water still slightly high but very fishable. Laid back session... mix of dry and nymph -French leader style and sedge and dredge.

Lost one fish in the snags, only bite of the day came late afternoon. But still a very enjoyable day
