River very low and weather very hot by 10.00 am. One eel caught on meat. Nothing else but was still a very pleasant day in wonderful surroundings.

Hard going: low, warm water. Nice beat but tricky access in places and the road noise isn't the best.

Really hard going in the heat and with low water. Lovely barbel for Chris, some chub and an obligatory eel. Blank for me. Caught on lower beat.

Fished the ‘manhole’ Swim as suggested with starting short and working our way across the river. Very slow with first bite at 21:00.

This was the first time I looked at/fished this beat. It is a fairly limited stretch so far as options are concerned with no shallower areas to create pools etc. I fished on the largest Croy which is closely accessible from the middle parking lay bye, although fairly steep. A recently fallen tree just downstream from the Croy however, limited options and ruined the natural flow. Hundreds of canoes! The river was fairly low with a mild tinge of colour and normally favourable.

I only fished this swim for around 3 hours before I called it a day and moved to a day ticket beat where I caught some good chub.

2lb eel
