Feedback & Reports

Fished above the orchard (after a poor day below yesterday) Only a few swims available. BB under trees near parking had all the fish, hard work but cooler. Barbel 6lb and larger one lost, plus the chub.
I fished upstream just above the stile, full sun all day and blanked, tried most things with no success. iPhone overheated! Better luck next time.

It was an extremely hot day with the sun blazing down, fishing with the pellet, we had no bites, then exchanged to sweet corn and caught chub. We both caught eels on sweet corn. We will be back when there is a little more colour in water. A fantastic venue.

Blank. This was really due to conditions though as we were over fish and could see them. Nice beat with plenty to go at in the low water. As it was our last day of the trip we headed back before 7pm for a social. Great week and great locations. We'll be back. Thank you all.

It was our last day guided by Adam Fisher. Great week and brilliant to finish on a few fish considering the tough, low and clear conditions. Lovely beat and good access, plenty of swims. All in all a great few days and fantastic fishing/service. Thanks to the Foundation for everything see you next year!

Fished from first light until 10ish. River very low. All fish caught before 9.00am. Touch ledger pellets, corn and spam all did the trick. Enjoyed this beat.

River levels were low and fish taken to pellet on the feeder.

Fished all day below the Orchard. Air really cold until the sun got up then it got too hot and bright. A few bites and one chub until the sun was up then nothing, bites dried up completely. Could see massive chub against far bank but couldn't temp them.
Willow tree split and fell into field early that morning which meant the the cattle were crowded around BB's swim until all the leaves were cleared off. A surprisingly disappointing day from a stretch we thought would fish well in bright sunshine as it has the deeper swims! Better luck next year.

Another hot sunny day on a low river. Based upon our last 2 days we didn't expect much, but 3 out of the 4 of us had some barbel. We needed to use fine lines and small hooks but despite losing the odd fish had some good sport.

Water very low and clear and temperatures scorching. Still managed to find some fish in the middle of the river on groundbait feeder and pellet. Best fish just short of 10lb but average very good about 7-8lb. Boats very much a problem but some good sights!!!
