River at 0.38 falling on the Peterchurch gauge. Overcast with a gusty wind. Fished a ptn below a klinkhammer through the whole beat, except for the deep pools where I resorted to a single heavy nymph, without success.
1 grayling at 11 inches, 2 trout at 6 and 8 inches. All caught on the ptn, didn't see a single fish rise.
Did bounce another couple of fish.

Day's trotting for grayling. Caught one small grayling and one trout parr. Lots of leaves in the river.

River still fining down from high levels of previous week, so good height and colour. Strong winds overnight meant a lot of leaves in the river compared to day before.
Bites very difficult to come by in field below wood. Rang the changes with maggots, pellets and meat in each swim. Quick check of the beats catch reports on this website convinced me to sit it out below woodland and it paid off. Bites came in last two hours, mainly to meat. At about 8lbs, my biggest barbel for a few years too. Even caught a swimfeeder to replace the one I lost to a snag today!

Great afternoon fishing on this lovely stretch at The Creel on the Wye. Weather was good, 14c with sunny spells albeit with the odd shower. 6 chub with 5 between 3 to 5 lb and 2 barbel. Also, lost a barbel and 2 Chub. Mostly to pellet.

Many Salmon showing. Two Otters swam past. The One Grayling I caught might possibly be the smallest ever caught. Beautiful autumn colours.
