Feedback & Reports

Up at four again , usual.morning jobs smashed, not raining then , so mooched off to the Whittern beat , as fished well last couple of occasions there !!@
Arrived at ten to six , looking good reading 14 degrees in my truck and overcast and ominous !! Wasnt long before thf rain set in , been spoilt just lately fishing tiny dries etc etc , so nymphing it was thus morning , away baetis and caddies patterns . . .
River starting to rise from last nights deluge, I fished between the bridges pretty quickly and had good sport in the couple of hours I was there !!!!
Did see an otter top end only briefly , wondered why the top end by Titley Bridge was quiet !!! Four to the net this morning , two long range releases on the barbless hooks, must be the wet weather that makes them super slippy !!!!! Lol !!!
A fun couple of hours albeit a tad wet ,much needed rain , hope we get some more , give the river beds a good washing off !!!
Hopefully soon the Welsh Rivers will be open, these Arrow beats are getting a serious hammering !!! Its about time the Edw , Cilieni , Llynfi tc etc is ready for some fishing !!! Role on !!! Still a fun couple of hours this morning , great stuff !!!!!!!!

A short session because I got fed up with a wader full of water ....brand new ones too. Not ideal! Water with a tinge if murkiness from recent rain....visibility not good, but managed a couple on a stonefly nymph. Back when waders are replaced....or a trip to Hindwell with the thigh waders if I can’t wait!

This was our second trip to this beautiful beat. We appreciated the work done to improve the access to the swims, and came across more swims than we found last August. Weather turned out to be better than the forecast indicated, which was nice.
All fish were caught using feeder and pellet, and were in fine fettle. Biggest Chub was 4lb 12oz . Barbel were between 7lb and 8lb 12oz.
