Feedback & Reports

Very attractive section of the Irfon.
Short session 11-1330.
Water conditions good, cold NE wind not so good.
No takes at any point across a variety of nymphs.

Easy walk from the road down and bank access along the stretch is relatively easy with well maintained gates and no barbed wire to cross!

Will try again in more favourable weather.

5 Trout, 5 Grayling

Zero fish, river looked perfect but not a bite.

Three of us fished and caught 8 chub between us with the best about 4lb. Cold day and lots of mud, braved the walk up over the hill and caught six chub in the first field swims and another two at the top when we came back later in the day. Ben was on his first trip to the Wye and it was nice he caught his first ever chub after 7 hours fishing as he deserved one for the effort. A local angler we met who fishes there a lot recommended buying shoe crampons for the wye mud something I will be getting for next time

8 Chub

Cold and slightly damp. We were targeting grayling.

Walked whole stretch and tried lots of swims, river in good condition fairly clear and low for time of year but very cold. Caught the the chub early on towards the bottom of the stretch mainly on meat but no sign of any barbel.

15 Chub

No fish today. Cold NE wind. Lovely beat and I'll definitely be back

A cold day! The lower section of the beat was un fishable, no access no way down to the water and too deep & fast for safety. We decided to look at the upper section after a tea & sandwich and were rewarded with a fish each of 1-1.25LB.

The storms have caused havoc with the banks trees down, and debris everywhere.

2 Grayling

One Chub on a cold and frosty morning.
