1 barbel on the first cast at lunch time, on the float with meat. After that, only cub all afternoon, loads on the float, all huge fish. No barrel to be seen all day since the first. Seemed to be the pattern across all 4 days we fished. You'd catch one barbel and then you wouldn't see another again that day.

River ripping through near bottom end.
7 Barbel caught float fishing fast water with very big waggler float and banded 8mm pellet, accurate loose feeding with 6 mm pellets did the trick.
Most fish 5to7 pound, biggest 9 pounds on the button.
Red letter day, improve your skills, get on the float.

6 decent Chub on a slow day. Fished into dusk, no sign of Barbel today. Lovely day on the river. For info at time of writing….top end of the wood has a swim on the top croy and one below but it’s very overgrown up there so recommend travelling light as there’s not much in between. Lots of nettles too so wear long trousers. Meadow has good swims but fewer than previous years - particularly around the wood entrance. Take a rope and spike for some of these.
I saw a report about problems parking in the wood but can confirm it’s clear for two cars no probs.

14 nice size rainbows taken on olive hot head lures. Stunning location especially when the clouds come in.
