Feedback & Reports

A much better day on lower CHC section, even though the river started to rise from late morning. Nice 6lb barbel to legered pellet and two chub from a different swim on pellet, weighing 3.00 and 4.14. Latter fish looked a definite 5.00, alas it wasn't to be but still a pb for the angler in question :-) Rest of the catch return is made up of small dace.
This is a lovely peaceful fishery with lots of wildlife to see but it would definitely benefit from more swim creation - long lines of willow trees make access to the river impossible for much of the lower section.

Favourable weather between all the rain. River well up but fished ok. 3 barbel and 4 good size chub on a mixture of pellet and meat, plus other smaller chub,dace,bleak and the odd kamikaze minnow! Nice stretch - could do with a few more swims

Nice beat with some good fly water. Had one good take from a salmon that did not stick. Water was a bit high but clear enough to fly fish. An enjoyable day in a pleasant location
