Magnificent days fishing. I lost count of the Chub after 25 so 30 is a low estimate. Chub were in the range 2 to 5 lbs. The best was 5lb 2 oz. The barbel were again 2 to 5 lb. Not enormous but you knew they were there. All fish caught using feeder - most on meat.

Great beat. You can find everything what you want on this beat, fast runs , medium speed water and great dry fly water. I love it. Definitely come back there. Tight lines ????

Baits used were pellet and meat.
The barbel was tempted with a hinders barbel bomb pellet. It came in an 5lb and 10ozs.
Quite overcast today with the odd attempt at a rain shower. Fantastic to see a number of pairs of kingfishers skimming the surface up and down the river on Beat 2.

We both ended up having a great day despite a slow start to the day, the fish seemed to switch on in the afternoon when the sun gave way to cloudy damp conditions .Most of the Barbel were 4 -7 lbs with a cracking fish of 10 lbs 6 oz being the best of the day along with one of 8 lbs 7 oz.Also some nice Chub up to around 5 lbs
