Heavy frost and clear blue skies. Not a bite. Apart from a small trout.

river low clear and very cold, bright sun, thought it would be hard and it was but the grayling turned up, didnt know they were there. One of the chub was an old warrior too so all in all a good dayi

Lovely day for my first trip on this river. Lots of wildlife enjoying the sunshine. Lost a small pike early on but nothing else to report. Just nice being there and I will certainly be back!

A hard frost, clear bright sky...so not ideal conditions. I've been watching some of Dave Robert's videos which are a good reminder that its easy to blame the beat, water conditions and weather for a lack of fish...but most of the time its cos i'm being lazy, sat on a chair waiting for bites. So a couple of hard hours work with the catapult and frequent casting got me into a regular bites and a good haul of chub. Decent barbel of 8 1/2 came on a big lump of meat, most of the chub on corn or meat. The chub didnt match the stamp of fish that i found here a couple of weeks ago, with most being around the 2lb mark . When the ground thawed the banks became treacherous, so i got back to my truck looking like i'd been mud wrestling rather than fishing....having just about avoided sliding in for a swim on a couple of occasions...so do take care!

Sharp overnight frost combined with a low and clear river level almost certainly contributed to a challenging day.
