Two fish reported from Wyesham. One yesterday 9lbs and a 4lb grilse earlier in the week.
So we seem to have scraped togethr another 50 fish for September albeit from some pretty unusual places. Total so far this season around 480 depending on whose figures you believe. We should of course end it all now and if WUF and the owners had any thought for the river they would. They won't of course but you have a choice not too continue -don't you

are being used as part of the fight against illegal fishing. Check out this
video for an insight into Operation Stone and examples of the coarse fish
seized in organised fish taking.
