Hi Nick, great video. I fished your waggler swim on Wednesday with about another meter of water on and the chub are still there and on the feed albeit taking on the bottom so it was feeder all the way. Moved there as the Lucky Stones were pretty much inaccessible due to the height and pace of flow. Great to see you catching them on the drop and shows the benefit of being a bit flexible and trying out things that have worked elsewhere. Looking forward to seeing the next episode.
Thanks and glad you enjoyed it. It's good to hear the chub were still down in that swim. I wonder if they drop back after the spawning period up in the rapids. I've also had Barbel in the lower field swims in the winter. Thanks for your comments as always and tight lines.
Visiting this Stretch on Monday.Very much looking forward to it but I have a funny feeling after all this rain it's not going to be looking this inviting ☔
I fished 3 different locations Monday to Weds this week and the fishing was the best I've experienced in the last two years that I have been visiting the Wye. If it remains steady or rises a bit whilst keeping the colour, I'm sure you'll be in for a treat.
Yep she’s definitely going to have a fair bit of water on just be careful on those banks and you’ve got to be in it to win it. Good luck and Tightlines mate hope your catch is plentiful 🎣
Very informative video it’s a pity this river is getting ruined in places by the battery farms clogging the river with green algae etc hope this is resolved soon passed this river loads of times on my travels to South Wales to work allways stopped off for a look but never got round to fish it it’s on my bucket list since I’ve retired in 2020 as I live in north east England it’s a bit of a trek but who knows tight lines super video super hatrick and fish 🎣👏👏👏
That's a nice bit of angling mate , well thought out !!
Thanks Robert! It's good when a plan works out.
Like the way you present the video, explaining what you are doing and why and also the wildlife descriptions are very informative

Nice watch Nick, some 8mm cell pellets worked well for me, instead of cubed meat. Also stops fingers slipping off the meat fat on spool lip.
Thanks for the tip Dave. Do you mean when rolling bait?
@@WildlifeAndFishing No when targeting chub shallow, just like you did

Good luck David. It'll be different but you never know, it could fish well. I'm about 500m from it now... but not fishing this weekend.

Thanks so much Derek. If you're retired it's time for a trip to the Wye ... Worth the travel. Take care, Nick
