Split the day into 2 because of the weather, fished until lunchtime managing 25 Chub to 4lb and a single Dace, all on floatfished corn. A few casts with straight lead and boilie produced 2 Barbel to near 7lb and one lost on a snag.
A return in the evening with one rod and some meat produced a further 4 Barbel to 7lb 6 oz and 2 Eels to about 2lb, a very enjoyable day indeed.

After the previous days fishing at Caradoc, we were expecting to find that the river had dropped a little overnight. We were surprised to find it had risen further and we were going to have to change our plans a little. We fished the inside line along the length of the fishery and after a slow start, we caught steadily throughout the day. Most fish caught on meat, with mini boilies not really working, whereas with a little less colour the day before it was the other way around. Overall a very enjoyable day.

Conditions far from ideal with bright sunshine all day. All fish taken on pellet feeder and pellet dumbells. Fish taken intermittently throughout the day with no prolonged feeding period. Thankfully the abundance of wildlife kept us busy.
Anglers note when fishing for barbel please use appropriate end tackle to handle the fish. Caught a 8lb barbel with a size 16 hook and 4lb line wrapped through and around it's gills. Hook had a hair attached so being used for either boilies or pellets.... Hook and line safely removed and I am constantly seeing this as feature on this river.

WUF Note: Many thanks for looking out for the welfare of the fish.

we arrived to find the river very low at the creel this was our first time on this beat, the banks were dangerous and swims were very limited only one set of steps at the start of the beat. From a health & safety aspect this is not good we had 1 barbel & 2 chub very unlikely we will return here as anglers safety appears to be very low on the wye & usks agenda
