Too much rain. Very difficult conditions

River flooded couldn't fish

A lovely damp day with rain of biblical proportions at times. The river was rising but not too much in the way of debris coming down and a nice chocolate colour. Normal feeder methods were used with halibut pellet being the preferred bait. The barbel varied from 9 1/2 pounds down to 5 pounds

Fantastic day on a rising river - turned the fish on. Barbel were between 6 and 8lb but one very special fish of 11lb 5 oz. Cracking day!

Weather mild, with heavy rain for much of the day. River rising from mid morning.
Bites were few, using pellet or boilies and GB feeder.

This was the day rains came! Arrived in steady rain which made setting up difficult. Got the brolly up and all settled in. Then ‘Pow’ the steady rain became ‘stair rods’ for the next three hours. As things eased in mid afternoon we started catching, the 5 barbel caught were all of good weight with heaviest at 9lb 4oz.
PS the next day the river had risen over 3 metres.

River colouring up significantly with run off from the fields following torrential rain. River rose 0.8m during the afternoon.
Barbel to 9lb from bottom field. Pellet with large paste wraps successful.
