River was a little higher (few cms) than it's been recently from the heavy rain on Friday, but this quickly ran off through the day. Fishing in the woods on the rock and between us had 2 barbel - best 9-4 and one eel. Was very slow and expected a few more on a overcast day - really enjoyed it nether the less.

Fished roving all around the meadow swims. Tactics included float, feeder and float paternoster. We fished the morning and early afternoon but heavy rain meant we took a break until the evening. Fish caught were lots of dace and chub and minnows, and one lost pike of around 10lb. The evening session after the rain included 3 barbel of 6lb,and 7.5lb to T Everitt and a cracking 10lb barbel to A Davis. All fish were in superb condition. We enjoyed this session very much.

Late afternoon all 3 averaging 7lb.
Been raining all day since 6a.m. but only fed when weather brightened.

3 Barbel

Fished from mid afternoon in the last swim in the meadow. We heavily baited the area before fishing. A warm afternoon then became a slightly chilly evening with clear skies so bites were few and far between. Feeder tactics provided one small barbel and then chub of 3lb and 5lb to T Everitt and chub of 4lb to A. Davis
This swim did not live up to expectation but enjoyed the day.
