Feedback & Reports

River low and clear. Fished 10mm boilies over krill groundbait / feed pellets in the deeper wooded section. Picked up a beautifully conditioned 8.4 barbel. Lost a nice chub in the near side weed

A short notice trip meant a visit to a new stretch and this looked the best option looking at recent results. Weather was perfect to start with but cleared up after mid day.

I started in the meadow but one hook pull on a small chub was the extent of 2 1/2 hours between float and lead. Moved up into the wood and had a good go on the float in 5 foot of water (one chub) before swapping to bomb and bags and then feeder for the last 2 hours. One more chub but no barbel despite trying various hook baits. Having read odd reports that there were no swims was pleased to find 7 and I didn't reach the bottom end of the beat. Good parking at the top end, decent access and the road noise not as noticeable as expected so a good day despite no barbel and a stretch to return to.

Fantastic day in beautiful surroundings my first session of the season due to the hot conditions. The Barbel I caught looked in good condition considering however did notice red spots on the belly of the biggest fish of about 9lb.

5 Barbel

Plenty of barbel up to 8lb plus a few chub to 4lb. Mainly caught on Hinder Barbel Bomb and their dumbbells wrapped in paste. River level was spot on.

14 Barbel, 2 Chub

Short days fishing for 3 people - all fish caught in one peg - though another was lost from another.

4 Barbel, 6 Chub

1 Barbel, 7 Chub

First time fishing this beat , wasn’t much available as it was a busy day , so took what we could , river looked perfect and I was feeling positive. Not many swims from the first car park but there were better ones from the lay-by section onwards downstream. Very challenging day , we really grafted today but only managed 1 chub of 3lbs , stunning views of the valley and forest , but those wanting some tranquility be aware that there are 2 busy roads either side of the river and traffic noise is constant. Will return again to explore this place , much more to have a go at
