I know the spot, it's about a five miles from where I work. Good piking to be found round Symmonds Yat.

can't remember the name of the area,but fishing opposite the beaumont golf club at hereford throws up a few.also known for very good barbel and chub

think it could be the spot where over 300lb of chub were caught by an angler in a comp

That would be the Belmont golf club.

im up for that, id like to beat my pb of 18 an a half but its getting hard down ere aint heard of a 20 for too long.

40lb pike!! yeehe i like the sound of that mate where is that pond is it a big place?

back to the wye, if i fished at the bridge ar holme lacy what would be the best baits, tactics? im an experienced pike angler so have got a good grip of what to try but insider info beats all that.
