It was quite a surprise to find the level up slightly and increased pace from the previous day but the amount of weed made fishing extremely difficult for the first couple of hours. A rethink and change of approach greatly reduced the problem the weed had been causing and resulted in a great days fishing for both of us. Best barbel was 8.13 and chub was 4.13. Our usual feeder tactics and varying the bait was the method used.

A great beat with many features. A combination of techniques used but most fish falling to dries - sedge and CDC - but some success with blink and dink. One fisherman landed a personal best Grayling of 15".

This is a beautiful stretch of the river, it could do with the odd branch removed to open up the swims a little more, but a varied and interesting venue that whilst not the most comfortable, always delights.
2 of us fished various swims below the wood for 8 Barbel between us to 9llb and 18 or 20 chub to about 4llb. The fish coming to pellet and meat.
A wonderful days fishing in this most tranquil setting.
We did witness a VERY large Otter in the middle of the river which was a bit of a worry though, I've never seen one so big. Thanks W&U as always
