We fished from 10:15 till 16:30. We used spinner, fly and powerbait. Not at the same time.

Great day fishing caught 2 lovely sized trout. Just hope next time I return to fish the carpark just down from the burger van lay-by is open as at to park elsewhere and carry all the equipment to the spot.

Fished for the evening only, in the bottom field between the rope pool and the rapids. The river is low and clearer than a couple of weeks ago. Shared a rod in the same swim. Had fish knocking the feeder more or less straight away but despite that the only positive bites were on consecutive casts at dusk which produced the two barbel - both about 5lb - and the chub. Then hooked an eel which miraculously and mercifully came off in the edge so avoided the pleasure of having to deal with it myself.

Hot day, fished up by the big Oak tree in open water with pellet and boilie to catch 2 X carp around 9lb. Dropped into first swim on big lake section fished against the reeds catching a further one carp and losing 2. Lots of feeding activity with the fish turfing up the clay all over. Few fish cruising around.
