Feedback & Reports

second day of a 3 day visit - the water level had fallen from the day before, but still another day under our brollies. Complete blank for both of us unfortunately, not even a twitch between us. The cattle in the field were a bit daunting - a mixture of bulls, cows plus their young - but they eventually won the intimidation stakes, and I moved my gear out of their way!

Wash off river in the fields and across the road

Lovely stretch of river though top half is largely inaccessable. Fished lower section. Would love to return to try some different swims

River low and clear, and weather light cloud with plenty of sunshine. To two anglers, four barbel to 8.12, 3 to feeder fished pellet and one on meat. Two chub to 3.9, one caught on trotting the other on the leger. Most fish came when the sun went down.

4 in the party, all caught but sadly only 2 caught the barbel. River levels lowest I have seen on this stretch. Beautiful day warm and sunny but too bright over midday period. Can't wait to come back. Top end too shallow and weedy to fish.

First time on this beat. i fished Mill Pool while RF roamed the beat, fishing various swims. Result was 1 Barbel of 6 Lbs to me late in the morning and a 4 Lb chub to RF n the afternoon. Both fish taken on meat.

Two nice barbel around 8lb and two very nice chub around 4lb. All caught at the lower part of the stretch in the afternoon. A tough days fishing exploring the whole stretch, persevering with heavier gear, but ultimately pretty satisfying.
