Sadly a blank for me today - more water and colour in the river than at my last visit. Only fished the afternoon but no bites to ledgered pellet despite moving swims several times.

Hello,
Perhaps I have missed information but I could not find any details to access the gates for the majority of the beats on this ticket. (The gates had codes on the locks). The only beat that had no access coded gate was pretty much unfishable.
2 sections had ladders to access the river as the drop from the bank was about 10 foot. The banks were unstable and pretty dangerous to fish from due to sediment. I think some better descriptions are required and I appreciate rivers are natural places etc so wasn't expecting decked swims but just a bit of pre info.
Spent a couple of hours on the one beat that we could access and did not see a fish even rise, which given the fly life and the conditions, this was odd. We spent a good amount of time just watching the river but seemed void of life. Perhaps due to rain the week before?
Perhaps the other beats are more suitable for fishing.
Many thanks
Simon

Tough day on the Wye today and blankety blank for me. Tried lots of methods, baits and covered all accessible swims which are fairly limited, but didn't get a single bite all day. As it was quite pacey, suspect the fish were in the few slacks but sadly no way of actually fishing them.

3 grayling, largest around 14 inches, all on klinkhammer (probably because my nymphing skills are poor). River at a good height after a few dry days. 0.578 at Ddol Farm. Fished the lower section only.
The broken gate has been reported to the landowner by the people who have the sawmill. The gate collapses when you untie the baler twine as the gate post at the hinge end is broken. Care needed. Do not climb!
