Level over 2m at Hereford bridge in the morning so only fished a few hours in the afternoon once the levels had dropped enough to be fishable. All to meat.

Feeder fishing saw us catch several chub, 1 sea trout, 4 barbel to 9lb 4oz and 1 lost. Water very coloured as heavy rain over the 48hrs leading to session. Mud was no issue and is beautiful. We parked in layby as can't drive down in rain. 500yrd walk was OK.

Another incredible day catching chub and barbel on a waggler. I've probably fed nearly 5 tins of meat today. Started off by catching a few chunky Perch before the chub turned up.

Absolutely stunning day catching chub and barbel on a waggler fishing and feeding loads of luncheon meat! A few accidental bleak, dace and trout too.

Visited the beat the previous (overcast) evening and got tips from helpful fella fishing ????. However my day’s fishing was one of blazing sunshine, sunburn and serious overheating! Shouldn’t complain! A few of the chub were over 5lbs, one probably nudged 6lbs, right down to much smaller fish but the barbel weren’t having it and I had to leave before the sun came off the river and barbel prospects may have improved. I also massively underestimated the weight needed to get down, static and safely holding in the deeper far bank areas where the fish seemed to be holding. Newbies note, when your rig stops bouncing along the bottom and seems to hold, you are probably snagged. This is very civilised fishing, fabulous access in dry weather and picnic tables. I wouldn’t risk driving my van down to the bottom in any sort of wet weather though. A somewhat casual day….

A slow morning, river was slightly up and coloured as seems usual these days. Fishing picked up in the afternoon/evening after heavy baiting. Switching between krill dumbells and 8mm robin reds on a straight lead with long hooklength kept the bites coming. Very picturesque beat if a bit limited.
