Feedback & Reports

River was low with reduced flow to what we'd previously been used to. The fishing proved to be quite hard with the late afternoon/evening proving to be the most productive period. The best barbel was 8.14. Feeder with various baits was the method used.

River level very low with little oxygen. It was always going to be a struggle on a very hot and sunny day.

River was looking good but unfortunately the barbel didnt want to play, just two eels banked but a beautiful place to spend the day.

I only fished a 4 hour evening session with no bites at all. A very scenic stretch of river, but I could only find 3 fishable swims ?

It was a tough 3 days. The river was slow, low and clear. It got lower by the day surely not helped by it being drained to irrigate the surrounding fields?

We caught 24 fish over the 3 days (3 anglers) using mainly Halibut, Robin Red pellets and Peperami. The biggest was a 9lb 5oz barbel.

The pegs need some maintenance as they are overgrown with nettles. The access to them is also precarious and 'steps' need to be carved out. Still a very pleasant stretch to fish though.
