Only one rod fished between 11 and 7.30 and not much caught but still an enjoyable day on this peaceful stretch....There are plenty of small fish and I caught plenty of 4 to 12 ounce Chub and a couple of good dace....Unfortunately just one proper bite produced a solitary good Chub and leaving early kept the return pretty meagre.Quite enjoyed the company of some long tailed tits in the trees above me and the boat traffic was all courteous and not too frequent so will look forward to returning.

Great looking water, looked a bit fresher and with a bit more water on than a few weeks back on our last visit to the Wye.
Fished the top end of the beat in the morning, a good Chub landed first then a barbel of 6lb 10oz two further barbel hooked and lost. A number of smaller chub landed. Most taken on sweetcorn.
The other fish was a big dace on meat.
Moved to the other end of the beat mid afternoon and caught a good number of chub up to 1lb one decent fish hocked and lost. Slightly strange day, out of practice ?

Very slow day, fished the orchard carpark swim. River dropped a good 10 inches in the day.. Targeted Barbel with pellets,paste & meat. the Chubb were 3 1/2 & 4.0 lb.
Nice venue.

Spent the second day like the first, a lot of effort, but not much reward. Using the usual float or ledger tactics

2 Barbel

Full of expectation but unfortunately only a couple of Barbel to show for a lot of effort

2 Barbel

Didn't fish, as threat of thunderstorms allied to the river conditions from yesterday.

4 rods, 2 small chub and 2 dace. River like brown soup. Not good.

Went to catch barbel with fly rod , couldn’t temp 2 double figure ones to my nymphs. Had 7 chub around 1lb and a awesome Shad last fish of the day. 5 of the chub to dry fly rest on the nymphs

Only one rod today and caught 7 chub from the beach area. River really low, hot and sunny and difficult conditions but an enjoyable day nevertheless.
