River washed out so not much chance of a fish!

Really tough day big thanks to Terry for allowing me to fish as the river was very high. He pointed me in the right direction for some near side swims to try and I managed 1 Barbel but gave up pm as river was rising more and debris made fishing impossible. Lovely beat, will be back.

1 Barbel

Hard fishing river in flood 1 barbel to 8lbs and small chub all on pellets and meat

1 Barbel, 10 Chub, 4 Other

No fishing today, Totally unfishable, wash off, banks underwater totally and no access to swims due to flooding. The nature of the beast which is the Wye. Awesome river

Due to the Wye being unfishable we fished the elan we took fish on the duo even rising to the stimmy and on the French leader it rained all day did not effect the fishing the water had a slight colour to it

The river rose 3 meters during the course of the day making fishing all but impossible.
No Barbel, but a handful of Chub saved the blank.

3 Chub

Caught two barbel early on as the river level was rising. Things became very difficult after that with everything (including trees) flowing down the river accompanied by very strong winds once again!! Finally gave up at around 3pm as river had already risen by 1.8 metres and was still rising.

River rose quickly throughout the day and the stretch became unfishable by 5pm due to the swims themselves being several feet under! Most fish came from the Old Wharf with the rest from the Wyebank Pool. Pellet wrapped in paste caught but suspended weed made it a nightmare. A switch to rolling meat resulted in most fish including a chub of 5lb 1oz and the largest barbel of 8lb 14oz. Every fish was a workout in the strong flow but all were well rested and shot off strongly.
