Feedback & Reports

This is a lovely stretch of water, however despite trying various lures no fish caught, probably because I arrived there later than intended and it was a hot, sunny day. This was my first booking through the Wye and Usk Foundation and I have found the organisation and service quite impressive.

This is a beautiful place to fish. Got there early in the morning, weather was hot. Scouted out a nice swim. Easy access to all the swims, well kept place, river was clean and good to fish. After about an hour my mate had the first barbel on the bank, a very nice 9lbs in mint condition taken on pellet. Soon after I was into a 6lber and the day just got better. In total we had 15 fish, great fights from them. Could not ask for more. The directions on the map were spot on. Will be back for more, great place and a big thanks to the WUF for this fabulous beat, one of my best days on the bank and my friends too. Highly Recommended !!! See you soon.

What a gorgeous bit of water. Secluded, diverse with some deep pools, shallow glides and riffles. I fished the morning of one of the hottest days of the year with bright sunlight. I was not going to catch in a month of sundays in those conditions. A lovely day wading nevertheless

4 rainbow trout caught on worm.

Sunny, breezy day. Took boat to top end after trying small bays on the way. No takers until 1.30pm when caught 3lb rainbow on buzzer on the dropper. Intermediate line.
Fish was returned. Couple more takes and small perch and that was it. Nice day but fish elusive. There again, it is August.

Arrived 3.45pm Wednesday, river looked in good nic. Fished the bottom beat and worked our way back to the hut. 4 barbel and 3 chub. Met Colin the ghillie, realy nice bloke. Had a good ole chat, he pointed in the right direction. Next day was sunny and hot so most fish caught early morning. 10 barbel to 8lb and 13 chub including the boys pb chub of 5lb 8oz. Most were caught on feeder fished pellet. Thanks again to colin who made are stay memorable.

5 barbel to 8lb, 3 chub 4lb. Started at 9.30am, fished until 4.30pm, great days fishing, nice beat.

caught 6.

Got up at 4am anticipating another scorchio. Fishing by 5.45am. Gave Rock and Upper Rock a good going over with the double hander. No fish seen, then one 18-20 pounder showed a couple of times under the trees between Chine and Woodstream. Tried in the shade with a shrimp [impossible to reach with a fly] but no interest shown. Gave up at 2pm with temperature rocketing. Last seen falling asleep on a lounger at 5pm with beer in hand. Till another dawn!

None caught, excellent beat and booking service.
