What a fantastic days fishing, biggest Chub 5lb 6oz, biggest Barbel 9lb 3oz. I didn't think t was possible to catch this many fish in one day.
A day never to be forgotten......
Thank you W&U

Overcast all day but the rain held off! Beautiful stretch of river giving up 5 decent chub and 1 double figure barbel. Can’t wait to go back for another session!

Always a delight to be on Middle Hill Court and a perfect place to fish in summer or autumn.....Fishing was very good despite the river being a murky brown colour.Caught 26 Chub and a few chublets on a combination of float and feeder tactics.Only one rod fished between 10 and 7pm so might have racked up quite a few more as this place always switches on late....Experimented with bait as getting loads of bites and it made no difference if I used pellet.corn or meat....the fish in the good conditions were having anything!! Just the one Barbel which was about 5 pounds to cap a terrific day.The only disappointment was the Chub were somewhat lethargic and did not fight that hard which was strange this early in the season and not the case when I fished at Wyebank next day.Thanks to owners and WUF for continuing to provide this splendid beat.

Level very low but with a bit of colour.
Fished a number of swims most of the Chub came in the morning from some fast water, the barbel 8lb 6oz came late on after catching a good number of small chub around 10 in the 1/2 lb size and a better one of 4lb in some steady water near the parking spot all on sweetcorn . A good well managed beat Thank you

Had a great day on this beat. Overcast day which started out quite cold. Fished most of the morning from the swims in front of the hut. Clough and Anders getting a couple of small chub out on pellet and feeder, while Flowerdew got a big eel on his second cast on luncheon meat. Moved down to the beach area below the footbridge in the afternoon, Anders managing some decent chub from the very bottom run on the beat on pellet trotted down on a stick float. Flowerdew getting a couple of nice chub nearer the footbridge on the feeder, and Clough rustling up a nice lunch. Afternoon went a bit quiet. Some more smallish chub back up by the hut before packing in at 7pm and spending the rest of the evening at The Cottage of Content. Lovely place to fish, beautiful scenery , friendly cows and a friendly reception in the pub in the evening. No barbel but will be back for them.
