5 chub between 3lb and 6lb. Mixture of float fished slugs and legered pellet.

Sun (2rods), 2 Barbel one at 8 lb 1 oz on around 6/7lb (not weighed), fish came at 17.30 & 20.00 Hrs.

Not a touch!

River clear and at a good level. Sew a few small fish rising and saw quite a few fry but nothing caught.

River 1' 3" on the guage. Nothing caught, nothing seen, nothing more to say really.

A and R had not fished the Wye for barbel before. Starting in the wood section produced about a bite on average every hour. 5 barbel were caught all between 5-7lbs . Three chub all about 2-3lbs. The fishing was not easy but they really did pull back in the strong current. A couple of fish were also lost on sharp rocks.
Moved up to the meadow later in the afternoon as we thought the fish might just feed later in the day. After about 1 hr, A caught a perfect 8lbs 15oz barbel and an hour later a beautiful barbel of 9lbs 2oz. R was soon back into the action with a fantastic looking barbel of 8lbs 4oz and a new pb. They had a couple of other smaller barbel so that was 10 for the day....oh and one eel.

Not the best of days. Water levels very low and coupled with the bright sunlight I only managed 4 small browns on a goldhead H/Ear. Far to many peole using this beat for swimming/paddling, throwing sticks for dogs etc,etc. Its a lovely beat, but sadly these people ruin the fishing.

WUF note - Following several recent complaints like this we have contacted the owners and work is being done to confine the local campers to a specific small area only for recreation.

River clear & weather sunny. Realy struggled, very snaggy & no bites all day. Caught 3 barbel between us in the last hour on meat.

2 Brown Trout to 1.25lbs and 4 Grayling to 1.5lbs. Good weather in the morning provided plenty of surface activity particularly around midday. However all this changed at 1.30pm when the wind strengthened and put the fish down.

Another lovely day out on the Wye fished a variety of swims and caught from all. All canoes polite and no trouble at all although one did capsize in front of us thankfully with no problems but why are they allowed out with no life jackets?!
