UPPER BREINTON (RIVER WYE)
|
Although only a short section by fishable bank length, if you were to take this as the centre of a mile of fishing, it would be the honey spot. Upstream and downstream you have a large bedrock intrusion, pinching the flow into a deep pool. This is the perfect habitat for chub, barbel, pike and most river fish species. With the stunning surroundings and no road noise, fishing here will make a day to remember on the Wye.
Camping is permitted by prior arrangement, and is as talked about as the fishing - minimal light pollution rewards the stargazer, and with your shelter pitched overlooking the river, lie and watch the moons reflection dance in the current, whilst drifting off to sleep to the sounds of the river. STRICTLY NO NIGHT FISHING SEASON

HOME FISHERY (RIVER WYE)
|
|
Approximately ¾ mile of right bank fishing. Whatever species you fish for you are in with a chance of a specimen and the Courtfield waters are famed for specimen fish. There are several hundred yards of fantastic coarse and game fishing, all within easy reach as you drive the full length of the fishery and park just meters away. The Home beat lies in beautiful parkland surroundings below the mansion of Courtfield where King Henry V lived as a boy.

LOWER HILL COURT (RIVER WYE)
|

Just over a mile of right bank fishing just upstream of Monmouth. This is a lovely fishery with stunning views reaching up to the Forest of Dean.

GOODRICH COURT (RIVER WYE)

It is a well underfished stretch in coarse fishing terms and contains a good head of barbel, along with healthy numbers of chub and dace, and some very nomadic pike - specimens here have been identified as travelling well over a mile from neighbouring fisheries. In the right conditions this also a superb fishery to trot a float.

THE TUNNEL (RIVER WYE)
|
Whilst privately owned and day tickets or memberships unavailable, this fishery lies in the heart of our "patch", and we feel duty bound to safeguard it. It helps by being what in our view, is one of the finest examples of lower Wye fishing. Additionally it's located on our residential doorstep, and an almost daily dog walk finds us monitoring for illegal fishing and camping with ease.

LLANGAMMARCH WELLS (RIVER IRFON)
|
Split into 3 stretches, Upper, Middle, Lower - this is some of the best Upper Wye tributary grayling and trout fishing available. The river Irfon is affected by rainfall within a matter of hours, and it fines down in a similar timeframe. Huge grayling are caught here year after year - it's tough fishing but every fish that's banked is worth it, with stories of lost fish that bring anglers back autumn and winter, year after year.
SEASON
Trout (fly only) - March 3rd to September 30th Grayling (fly only) - October 1st to October 31st Grayling (bait or fly) - November 1st to March 2nd DAY TICKETS 1 or 2 anglers (in the same party) per stretch - £20.00 per angler VEHICLE ACCESS & PARKING Parking adjacent to each beat.

MONNOW VALLEY (RIVER MONNOW)
|
|
|
1 mile of right bank fishing on the lower reaches of the Monnow, a few miles upstream of Monmouth. This wonderfully secluded stretch is for the most part a good mixture of riffles and pools, providing some excellent fly fishing for the trout that give this river its reputation as one of the area's finest. The mayfly hatches can be spectacular, so dry fly fishing is excellent during late spring and early summer. This stretch of the Monnow is also host to a variety of coarse species, including chub and grayling. The best of the coarse fishing is towards the downstream end of the fishery where the river is slower and deeper.
|
WAINLODE (RIVER SEVERN)
|
|
Carp and zander will be the main focus on this tranquil stretch of the mighty river Severn. Trotting a float can yield a real mixed bag with some decent roach and perch reported too. Night fishing permits are limited but there are up to 4 day tickets available per day. Parking is good and access easy, but care must be taken after high tide or following a flood as the banks can be very slippery. With the river Chelt flowing in at the the lower boundary, silver fish gather in the thousands and this is a notorious predator hotspot.
