Feedback & Reports

Lovely day for my first trip on this river. Lots of wildlife enjoying the sunshine. Lost a small pike early on but nothing else to report. Just nice being there and I will certainly be back!

Sharp overnight frost combined with a low and clear river level almost certainly contributed to a challenging day.

Feeder fished baits on a coloured and dropping river the working method.

Pike and trout caught today

1 Trout, 1 Pike

Nothing...didn't even look like there was fish within a mile of the place. My first time on this beat - and much of it is shallow without much cover....so not a stretch that is going to hold fish in a clear, low cold winter river. Shame really, I'd asked W+U if I could walk the beat the weekend before to check it out....they refused (which struck me as not especially helpful!)...so I took a gamble...and lost. So there's £30 and a day of my life i'm not getting back.

Another day with possible blank written on it,river low clear and cold cloudless blue skies all day lovely day to be sat in the countryside just not very good catching conditions! Absolutely nothing all day then saved a blank at the death all fish coming on consecutive casts to feeder fished “bits”.
