River low and despite trying many swims, where we had caught in the past, no fish were caught.
We were disappointed with the so called "new swims" created in the top field. Most were in very shallow areas and the minimum of work appeared to have been done. After canoeing this stretch I can suggest some far better areas to create access down the bank.
WUF note - Anglers are advised to look at the Beat Gallery on the beat page of the website to see the 15 different swims available. Whilst we understand the differing expectations from different anglers, these swims are not fishing platforms. Thick vegetation has been strimmed back to allow access to a large percentage of this beat that was previously inaccessible whilst retaining it's natural character.

A beautiful stretch of river, but despite various tactics and baits tried, I only managed three chublets (trotting sweetcorn) and one eel on ledgered sweetcorn! I am sure this stretch is full of fish, but just not a good day for me despite favourable conditions. Beautiful scenery and the Kingfisher on the opposite bank caught a lot more than I did!

Wonderfull scenery, great beat, long walk but worth it. Had one barbel and two chub. Hard day for fishing, walked full length of beat, unpacked tackle with great relief after very long walk only to find I had left my bait in my car. Fished croy, looked great and produced two good chub but no barbel. Fished lot of swims on the way back but just one barbel between 7 and 8lb from far bank within 1 meter of trees. Great scrap. Very hot day but very nice day spent on the Wye again, thanks.
1 Barbel, 2 Chub
