A hectic day in the heavy showers, river full of chub.

7 Barbel, 43 Chub

Very busy day. We caught lots of chub, 32, in our usual swim with 3 barbel during the afternoon. The chub took the bait within seconds. Pellet or boilie feeder fished.

Decided to move and find a swim with a better ratio of barbel to chub and bobbed into one for the evening and that got us another 8 barbel. A good move and a bit more relaxing too. Watched a juvenile kingfisher getting used to angling today too.

Unfortunately for us the river had come up very quickly over night and the bottom end was unfishable. The fish seemed to come in short bursts throughout the afternoon but the late evening feeding spell never materialise.

River conditions looked good and I caught steadily throughout the day using feeder with meat and pellets. Fed the swim regularly and had twelve chub over four pounds and two over 5lb. No sign of any barbel, but plenty of wildlife with a very busy kingfisher opposite me and late afternoon two otters came through the swim which made things quiet for an hour. All nineteen fish in great condition ????

Float fished again and had another good day with plenty of fish. The Dace are lovely fish to catch and at the end of the day my arm was aching. Big thank you to Colin for all the advice he gave me.

A very well kept beat and Colin was strimming the grass. Lots of Chub and Dace on the float using corn, bread and pellets. This was a great days fishing and will book again.
