Water levels getting lower but still high.

Our last day of a 4-day break on the Wye, down from London. Terrible weather conditions throughout, with the river in spate, gales and persistent rain. Managed 3 hours in the late afternoon, perching side-by-side precariously on the one peg we could access right at the lower end of the beat. Caught two nice barbel, of around 7 and 5.5lbs, but landing them was challenging - nearly ended up sliding into the river due to all the mud!

River dropping all day so better than the day before. Barbel to 9lbs 5oz and a lot of small chub. Mostly on pellets and meat opposite the weir garden swims.

Great day today, river fining down after not being able to fish the previous day due to a wash off at wyebank. Lots of chub and barbel coming to all baits.

Water was about 8 feet up and very coloured, so difficult to comment on the character of this beat as all features were hidden.
However, dropping into a nearside slack right beside the first parking spot, I had six big barbel, the two biggest I weighed at 9lb 14oz and 10lb 12oz. Excellent days fishing, surroundings and access first class. Would love to see this beat with a bit less water on.
