I said we would return and we were not disappointed,we fished 2 days and between us we caught 22 barbel 6 chub an eel and a very hungry dace that had a go at the halibut pellet.
The successful method was groundbait feeder with hair rigged halibut pellet.
Hopefully we will return in September or October for another go.
If you want to catch fit well conditioned barbel I recommend this fishery and would like to thank Don and Rudi for the information the gave us over the two days.

My son booked this beat for us so that I could try and catch my first Barbel, mission accomplished the weight 6lbs, I was over the moon. It didn’t last long as my son caught one that went 8lbs 4oz. Sod’s law that your son catches one bigger than you.
The day was really good because on top of the Barbel, between us we had 24 Chub up to 4lb 12oz. Caught on pellet with feeder and straight lead and also on the waggler fishing pellet. I would say this fishery is well worth a visit considering it was our first and will be looking to come again.

Friday 28th April. A large female pike well in excess of 20lbs seen spawning in the shallows at lower end of Leggs meadow attended by several (presumably) male pike of 5 to 10lbs. Barbel are rolling and perhaps spawning in the shallows behind the cribs in The Wooded section. Some early Shad activity above island and Black Backed Gulls seen taking fish off surface in same area. Reports of Salmon leaping in pool below island and also seen in Wooded Section. What a beautiful Spring on the Wye!
