A pleasant days fishing, but the river was low and in need of some rain. Two Barbel and ten Chub, hard to get past the chub but an enjoyable day none the less.

River fairly low and clear. Weed floating down which tangles up with line. Fishing slow. Chub caught on ledger but was patchy . Barbel did not seem interested. Weather sunny, very warm and very humid.

Beat kept in very good condition by Colin, river was clear with some weed, all fish in good condition but 1 barbel looked to have some parasites on it. All fish returned safely and swam off strongly..
Very nice beat but hard to book.

Started at the bottom of the stretch which is full of Chub. I switched to float and lighter tackle for a while to catch chub up to 4lb 15ozs but most were in the 2lb to 4lb range. Only had 2 Barbel up to 5lb 6oz. Moved back upstream midday to try and find more Barbel but continued to catch more Chub. All fish caught on halibut pellets. Bites continued throughout the day despite the hot conditions.
