A great place to visit on a breezy September day...we were not alone with that idea because about 200 Canadian Geese turned up too!! The river looked in reasonable shape...still low but a touch of colour and flow gave us some confidence in catching. Sport was steady all day mainly from Chub and there were quite a few chublets and Dace here too despite the presence of a couple of "you know who" perched on a dead tree on the opposite bank. We also bagged our first Wye Perch ..not a whopper but a feisty beautiful fish of about 6oz. Thanks to the owners and WUF for providing this attractive well maintained beat.

We had visited in May on a very bright and blustery day and not done that well. So, we were excited about the overcast weather and hoped for better results. Four fish each caught - all fighting-fit Llyn trout around 12". Most caught to dry but a couple to wet. We will keep trying for one of those 20 fish days!

Fantastic days fishing. Bit different from previous sessions on this stretch with all fish coming early and through day on pellet and meat.

Great day on the Wye, water low mostly small fish 1-3lbs, but late afternoon an amazing 11lb fish. All on the feeder.

Struggled to get a bite, which is unusual for this beat, have fished it many times before but the weed was a nightmare

Well looked the perfect conditions when I set off from the outskirts of Leominster , cool , 13 degrees and a slight breeze , thinking it would be a good day at the Titley beat of the River Arrow . . . .

Arrived at ten tackling up with the usual six foot , two weight , small gold head PTN , and mooched down to the footbridge , strewth the water was low low and clear as gin , although could do with a good flush through to get rid of algae etc etc . ..

Nothing really rising so worked the nymph in likely areas , had a nice little fish in one of the deep holes , about nine inches , lovely Arrow colours as always . . Quickly admired then released . .

Nice riffley stretch ahead so swapped to a parachute Adams , and had one small shot , about five inches in the faster broken water , again gorgeous colours , and released to get bigger !!!!!

Another forty yards or so up , had another small shot , ditto in size , again on the Parachute Adams , really scrappy little fish , and slipped back in . I continued prospecting with the Adams from then on , but no more takers , so had a wee chill out and enjoyed the scenery around here , superb !!!!!

Things seemed to slow down , and it was a while before I had any more takers , a nice fish about ten inches , three quarters of the way up the beat , in a deep pool , on the PTN , fought well above its weight , great stuff !!

Reaching the weir , not much water coming over the top , and I spooked a heron feeding !!! He seemed to have a job to take flight , as the wind had picked up by oneish . . . Was a fun four hours , four little Arrow beauties to the net , will be nice to see some more water to the river though , still that's all to come I guess , had a brief chat with the lady at the cottage where I parked under the yew tree , she assures me she'll give it a good trim , so that parking is made easier . . . .

Shall head too this charming beat next season , clocks ticking !!!!!! Roll on !!!!!!!
