The river was low and with only a choice of three swims to fish we were defeated before we began.

The beat seemed expensive for the options you have to fish when you get there, access is tight and if the lay by is full near the bridge then you can find yourself with a fair walk with your tackle.

Fished using a method feeder with pellets and boilie - ended up with a chub of about 1lb and can't see myself returning any time soon.

It was our first trip to river wye and it was a wonderful experience. Caught only 1 barbel which is a bit of let down however had a busy day catching chub ranging between 1lb-4lb. Can't wait to visit again some other stretches of this beautiful river.

First visit here. Really enjoyed the session, scenic and quiet. Just upstream of one of my favourite beats the Creel. Fished afternoon till evening. Good variety of swims for such a short stretch. Will be back here.

Water low and Algae bloom evident but fishing reasonable considering

Lots of Chub and a good size too. We had two Barbel at 1920 and 2030. The "others" were Eel, Dace and Gudgeon. Any method with any bait proved fruitful. Well worth a go if you need some confidence.
