River was at about 0.7m, with some colour and seemed to be ideal conditions. Fished 3 swims and had fish from each. Chub up to 4lbs and a bonus 2lb Perch. Maggot attracted hordes of Dace and Bleak. All of the larger fish on float fished meat. No Barbel for 'love nor money'.

Great venue, good directions. A nice change from the middle Severn.

River looked great and was on the drop with levels at 0.7m at Ross. I was confident of a good day. I worked the whole stretch from top to bottom and back again and managed 6 chub. Not a barbel in sight. The usual pegs that I caught lots of barbel before I couldn’t get a bite. Lovely beat though and Andy the gamekeeper is a true gent.

Water falling after recent rain. 0.8 on the gauge was a good height for the river. It is a lovely secluded spot with plenty of streamy runs and pots to fish but the wading can be tricky in places. We caught our fish in the morning on Sawyer Killer Bugs and they were all returned. It went quiet in the afternoon as the temperature dropped but it was good to see several salmon show in the pools during the course of the day. There is plenty of water to occupy two rods for a day in this idyllic spot but it is hard to do it justice during the course of a single visit.

The river was up slightly but dropping however the drop in temperature seemed to put the barbel off, managed a few chub on pellet best just over 4lb.

One small Brown Trout taken on small nymph

This was a very speculative end-of-season cast for salmon. We were not successful on that front, but did catch four small brown trout. A lovely beat in beautiful countryside.

A quieter day than normal here. Pellet feeder was most productive method.
