Early morning session and managed the trek up over the hill to the lucky stone swim the usual instantaneous chub bites followed and managed to get 2 barbel in between, groundbait and pellet feeder with meat on the hook the method used.

2 Barbel, 15 Chub

Lovely half day fishing this very picturesque beat. There were fast flowing swims, as well as deeper slower swims. I found the fish in the fast water, and luncheon meat bounced down the swim was the method. Not a touch on any other method - they wanted a moving feast. Caught two beautiful Barbel, one just over 7lb, and the second was 8lb +. Also lost two other barbel. To round the session off caught a PB chub, 5lb 2oz. Will return…????

2 Barbel, 1 Chub

Fished from 6.30 to 14.00. 2 good barbel - one just on 8 lbs and one around 5 lbs. Also lost 2 good fish. I started fishing in the 2nd swim of the upper section - there is a nasty submerged branch just downstream extending quite a way out - just passing this on for information. I didn't find any chub although you could see plenty in the shallow fast water on the lower section

8 Barbel landed, lost 3, few snags about. No chub at all, don't know why as the barbel were biting throughout the day

8 Barbel

4 Barbel, 6 Chub

With the river being low and gin clear this made for tricky conditions, but the chub were obliging, and backed up with some cracking dace on the stick float..
