River Low and first time on the beat. Really impressed with the fishery manager Peter, who showed us some good swims that looked likely.
We all managed some chub and 2 of us on the top Crib had 3 barbel between us. Biggest 8lb. Not bad in bright tough conditions.

3 Barbel, 7 Chub

River was low, but managed to find a deeper hole at the end of the beat that held a shoal of barbel from 10oz up to 5lb. My brother and father fished in the first two swims nearest the car park. The end swim was the only one that produced on the beat this day. I was catching barbel as soon as the feeder hit the water, I have never experienced as much action from barbel anywhere like this before. Fantastic days fishing for me but my father and brother were less fortunate.

Started by the hut with every intention of moving around to the wood in the afternoon, but in the end caught regularly enough to stay put. 3 Barbel (including a fantastic looking "fingerling" of about 4oz) and 2 Chub in the morning. Then a quiet period. Baited and rested the swim and went for a natter with another angler, started again at about 3:30pm and caught 4 Barbel in the next hour or so. Evening was a bit disappointing with only 1 more Barbel (which was the biggest of the day at exactly 9lb) and 2 Pike (both on pellet). Most of the fish were caught on pellet, with a couple on sweetcorn.
Another great day, with 7 of the Barbel being over 6lbs, thanks WUF

9 Barbel, 4 Chub, 2 Pike

Wonderful day for fishing with cloud cover most of the day. Started off below the wood for 3 chub around 3-4lbs. but was bringing more weed than fish & so moved up above the hut for the afternoon & found a few barbel to 7lbs. Very pleasant afternoon with the occasional company of a gentleman who had made the journey down from Suffolk; When we weren't talking he was catching Barbel...an experienced angler by comparison!
