Feedback & Reports

The river had a lot of colour with the rain we have had , but levels were good and the water was not pushing though to quickly. I walked the whole beat,the river looks in good condition in general. This is a wide stretch of the river that is fairly shallow and pacey. Fish came from about halfway across between the lanes of streamer weed.The only downside to this beat is the parking !! Just doesn't feel safe, lots of fly tipping been going on, and it would seem the parking is used by the locals as meeting areas. Would make sure you have locked your car and don't leave anything on show.

Caught here on ledgered pellet and feeder. The two swims upstream from the car park. Access was ok and thankfully the canoeists were both few and polite. Barbel up to 8lb and chub from 4 to 6lb. Caught steadily through the day.
Good Access to the swims and relatively snag free fishing. Would recommend and will return

Great days fishing today, first time on the stretch, certainly won't be the last! Conditions were obviously just right, a bit of extra water, colour and generally overcast although very wet by the end of the afternoon. 24 barbel between us, from about 4lb and the biggests going 11.1oz. Tactics were just a simple feeder approach and we only fished until about 5:30pm. It is a lovely stretch and looking forward to returning.

Nice days fishing, good conditions, river coloured but not too high. Had 2 barbel in the early afternoon when it started raining. 2 chub when the light started to fade and 4 barbel one after the other right at dusk. All fish on pellets. Chub around 4lb all the barbel were around 4-7lb. All down in the wood section in the fast water.

Lovely stretch of river with some good swims that have been cleared, it was raining and the water was high. I fished for about 5 hrs, I used feeder tactics with sweetcorn and pellets and with the objective of catching my first ever barbel, had a few chub and 2 that were a really good size and then in the late afternoon the rod went zing! and low and behold my first barbel! Amazing, not sure on weight but it was 60cm so a good size! Thank you!
