Feedback & Reports

Roasting hot and with the river being very low blanked, we bought a ticket to the elevated river gardens opposite to get a better vantage over the beat and saw a shoal of chub at the end of the bend, tried for them when we got back to the swim but to no avail. Stunning setting none the less. Thanks WUF

Fished this beat a few times, and it’s a stunner. Much better access under the current ownership! As expected conditions were difficult. The river was low and clear, with little flow. We managed 1 stunning Barbel of 9lb 4oz and a big Chub. On the whole a great day.

One of our favourite beats. Cleaned lice of all fish. All unhooked in the water, no need to take them on the bank.

Evening spell was best.

Great day. Fished opposite wier gardens, on pellets all fish came late afternoon. River low, weather very warm. Never fished here before but would go back - can drive down to river, 4x4 not needed in dry conditions.

Despite the Hot weather & Low Water we managed to catch 10 Barbel to 7lb & 1 Chub just under 5lb.

Really good days fishing, nice beat, fly fished, had two very large barbel on, but lost.
Quite a few canoes in the morning (about 10) but they in the main were polite and asked me which way they should go past.

Very nice beat, if a bit public. Access and pegs good - being so dry I had no problems driving my small car along the track. Three good sized barbel and a 5lb chub caught quickly at the 1st peg below the boathouse, before the heat got too much. Pellet on a light bomb over loose-fed pellets.
