A very disappointing morning session. conditions seemed perfect, the venue was beautiful, swims were accessible - but the fish weren't playing. We tried multiple swims and baits but only managed 3 small chub between us.

3 Chub

We arrived at a coloured but low river and struggled for bites in the most prolific of the swims. Eventually found some chub and caught around 25 between us, but the barbel were not playing ball despite seeing them throughout the day.

25 Chub

went up for an evening session on the trout, first time on the Wye trouting. arrived 7is to a small rise, which grew to a good rise at about 9ish, only trouble was I could not touch a thing changing flies down to a size 18, but then noticed that the rise might not have been a trout rise, or better to say dace,shad,all mixed ,
Sadly to say nothing caught

a bit cooler than last night but still nice. Arrived about 7 walked up to the chapel run fish rising caught the first one no bother, 9inches, then I could not catch anything nor my fishing partner, went on to the wets, still nothing then hooked a Shad, strange indeed, we sat and watched , My mate said these are not trout they could be dace small chub or something , and sure enough next fish was a dace , two other trout followed but that was enough so it was a good rise just not trout

! dace and 1 shad

3 Trout, 2 Other

No luck with the salmon fly but caught a nice trout in The Maddox. A good fish was showing under the power lines at dusk, as well as several others at the very top of the beat.
