Swim clearance excellent. No barbel caught, fished 13:00 to 21:30. Overcast conditions river low but with a little colour. Large numbers of chub present particularly in upstream swims if that’s what you’re after.

We arrived at a coloured but low river and struggled for bites in the most prolific of the swims. Eventually found some chub and caught around 25 between us, but the barbel were not playing ball despite seeing them throughout the day.

A beautiful spot to fish. Mainly sunny weather with the river at normal summer level. One of the chub had a significant kink in its body and we caught this fish in the morning and again in the afternoon. All chub were between 2 and 4 lbs and sadly, all had goosander scars on their flanks. We counted 9 goosanders skulking along the far bank. Halibut pellet was the successful bait and all fish were returned unharmed.
