Feedback & Reports

Managed to catch eight nice chub on a bright and sunny day, though with a little bit of colour to the water.
Fish came steadily spread throughout the day, all in 3.5-4llb range, on pellet and meat.
Highlight of the day, a PB Chub of 6llb 5oz, taken fairly early in the session, certainly made up for missing out on a barbel.
A cracking fish from a beautiful spot.

8 Chub

1 Trout

Methods used for fishing - groundbait feeder pellet. Conditions dry and river level dropping.

3 Barbel, 4 Chub

Plenty of barbel up to 8lb plus a few chub to 4lb. Mainly caught on Hinder Barbel Bomb and their dumbbells wrapped in paste. River level was spot on.

14 Barbel, 2 Chub

2 Barbel, 5 Chub

5 Barbel, 90 Chub

A lovely looking beat with lots of options. Conditions looked good for a few barbel but unfortunately just couldn't get past the chub today, with most of the fish coming from the section below the wood.

32 Chub

One of the two of us fished in the downstream field about 3 swims from the boundary. Somebody has put a hell of a lot of effort in making swims here and the one I fished had a shored up flat fishing area about ten feet by four feet cut into the bank opposite the wooded hillside. Fished bomb and meat around the swim to feel my way in and caught two chub one third across with no response closer in or right over. Put in 6 bait up feeders filled with mixed pellet and groundbait one third across and this set the swim alight. Finished with 13 chub and seven barbel. Best method was 2 banded 6mm pellets or one pellet and a bright coloured dumbell wafter on a short hair loop to a four foot hooklength of 10 lb drennan double strength. No monsters, best barbel 7 lb best chub 4 lb 12 oz. Brilliant day and many thanks to whoever put in the time and effort to create this swim.

8 Barbel, 13 Chub

barbel hard to find today, but we managed two...the chub were more obliging, largest 5.6oz...great day and most on pellet or meat on the feeder.

2 Barbel, 14 Chub

A quiet day on beat 5 in a couple of different swims. Eventually two 5lb + Chubb came in quick succession to Red Robin Luncheon meat on the feeder. Beautiful condition and my first ever Chubb over 5lb….happy days!
