great day challenging conditions

1 Barbel, 1 Chub

River very full very overgrown meaning unable to reach swims. Chub were good size and very full bodied and ranged from 3.5lb to 5lb meat and krill boilies pity no barbel beat 1 2 and 4 lots of roving tough day but lovely condition fish

Water levels up

Only the one small trout today but it was my son's first one, so all good also missed a very small trout. Water very high after all this rain and no other signs of fish seen.

On arrival 1st day of the season I noticed each of the swims had been cleared of excess vegetation providing good access. The river was up after the recent rain with good colour too. Fished pellet and feeder tactics in various swims with only limited success and the odd bite. Conditions looked excellent for Barbel so surprised not to hook one. 4 chub between 2 and 4LB.

Lovely days fishing. Barbel caught up and down the beat. We cut some steps into a lot of the pegs to make them more accessible. Fish falling to meat and pellets.

Nothing caught and no bites... not really surprising as this really is a spot better fished in lower water conditions - rather than the dropping flood we arrived to... Never mind. I'll be interested to see how the Courtfield anglers did on the same day as there's some much better high water swims up there...

The other fish were eels
