Didn't fish as wet and very windy. Shame as it looked a great stretch of river.

Lovely day in the water. Couldn’t get a bite on the stick. Had to switch to the waggler.

In all the years we have been fishing the Wye this was the lowest level we can remember it being. We struggled to find any fishable swims at all let alone some where we could fish in a reasonable depth of water. We settled into a couple where we had to make the best of what we had, with a bit of tree management mine would have been half decent but had to cast underarm most of the day so could not reach better spots of the river. The weather was more like an autumnal day, chilly breeze, overcast with heavy showers. John managed to winkle out one chub and that was the only bite between us.

Did not fish due to water levels and temperature.

Fished for the morning. Not easy but managed to pick up a couple of fish each on teams of wets. Beautifully conditioned fish between 3/4-1 pound.

Low water levels and difficult conditions. A few fish were lost, in addition to the two landed. The fish landed were caught on small streamers.
A mink was sighted hunting along the edge of the river, downstream of the castle, behind the houses at the bottom of town.
An enjoyable afternoon, thank you.

Fished the beach section of the lower end of the beat.
Very hard going.
Beautiful day with some cloud cover. Water looked pacey but was low.
Tried all methods and all baits but fish not feeding.
Lovely beat though and quite accessible. Will try again when conditions more favourable.
