Other fish was an eel

Dire fishing for whatever reason, the river had risen by around 1ft and we expected this to improve the fishing, however this wasn't the case and we packed up fishing around 1pm due to boredom.
All fish were caught on 8mm fishmeal pellets with a feeder, the barbel was barely bigger than a large gudgeon, this is for DC.

Was a bit hard going, did hope for the early season Chub bonanza on the balsa. Managed some lovely big chub with some smaller tubes too. The all night rain had not affected the river as it was still very low but did have slight colour in it. Unfortunately the wet weather had made the woods a bit treacherous, I did take a fall late on and jarred my shoulder but no damage. Take care. Mixed weather day too. Enjoyable as always fishing here in lovely surroundings. Be back at the end of the month. All canoes were very polite too.

fishing for barbel was very arduous for whatever reason, the only one caught was out of the nursery at less than a pound, the others were 9 Dace & 1 eel. some of the dace were very big, all caught on legered 8mm pellets with a feeder.
We did have a problem around midday when a canoe business owner turned up stating that he was going to land around 8 canoes in the fishing hut swim, despite our protests he said that he paid the owner of the stretch for this facility, the result was that we had around 8 canoes milling around the swim while being dragged one by one up the bank and carried to waiting transport, our fishing equipment had to be moved out of the way to avoid being trampled on and needless to say we caught very little after all of this commotion, we were not happy especially as we had paid a lot of money to fish this swim and didn't expect to share it with a load of canoes
