We caught throughout the day, but spent a lot of time just trying to find swims that were fishable / accessible. A 4x4 made exploring easier. Caught some big barbel with 6 of the 12 caught going 10lbs plus.

12 Barbel, 10 Chub

Fished downstream of footbridge. Chocolate coloured water. High & fast. Difficult to find swims close enough to the water to fish. We managed . Very snaggy swim I fished I managed 6 chub. Lost 2 barbel to snags. Tim fished upstream a bit & had 7 barbel to over 8lbs. & chub. No snags lol. Lovely beat though.

River had come up and was in full spate. Had to sit at top of the bank watching huge amounts of trees and debris float past.

You really need to be VERY mobile to fish this stretch. Far too much of it is unreachable which is a shame because its a beautiful area with some good looking water.

6 Barbel, 5 Chub

Although I only caught one fish, a barbel 6 lb 9 oz, I had a cracking day on this lovely fishery. I had to stop early to celebrate my son’s birthday which I totally forgot when booking the day ticket. Lesson learned ????
