The Wye...

This week im fishing the River Wye Belmont - Hereford. Going for Barbel but i'll be happy with a catch of anything, i was just wondering what baits or tips would be usefull, any advice would be great though.

No replies???

Rich,

I woulddefinitely go with minimal feed.

Also lot will depend whether you want to be static or mobile.

Small feeder, block end with maggot/caster/hemp or cage feederwith ground pellet and a 10mm pellet on the hair.

Its cold and low, so the fish will be holed up in the deeper areas.

Look at the flow, and try to determine where the "flow rate"slows.

This will indicate a deeper area.

Dawn and late afternoon/dusk will probably be your best chances.

Trotted maggots will also get you some bites from the Dace and Chub if things are slow.

Hope you catch a few,

Steve

thanks.

Is it tidal there then Stephen?

Rich Rock, tides wont effect you where your fishing.

The Wye is only tidal to Llandogo many miles down river from you.

Good advice from Stephen Williams 2
