A man came and had a bath right next to me and in all his glory. Very shallow but access was good.

A really tough day today.

A really tough day today, a barbel at 8lb 6oz made it worth the effort.

Difficult day at Wye Bank boats and swimmers all day made fishing impossible, still a nice day out on a lovely river.

Caught a 5 lb chub on a feeder.

Took a minute to work out the pools, so wasted the morning a little. Had one small barbel in the morning, boats and swimmers then made fishing pretty much impossible. All were polite and good natured and it's part of fishing this area. I then fished the stick all day and caught a tonne of dace, one a chuck. Evening came, back on the barbel and managed 8 more, mostly smaller stamp to about 6lb with one quite significantly bigger. Lovely spot.

Bright hot sunny day. Quiet at first (fish, people and canoe wise) but by 11.00 there were dozens of people in the river at the top of the beat, gradually migrating downstream, swimming in the various slacks. The top half of the beat also became a lunch spot for large groups of canoeists. Carried on until late afternoon but a small number were still swimming and partying until 21.00, when I left.
Fish were caught at the very bottom of the beat on rolling meat and one on PVA bagged halibut pellet in the early evening after most of the mayhem died down. River was up a few inches but very clear.
