Feedback & Reports

A tough days fishing, the water was low and an odd brown colour with plenty of streamer weed to deal with. Most of the fish were caught late afternoon on boilies except for the two eels which took meat. Two chubb 3lb 8oz, 4lb 11oz and two barbel 8lb 3oz and 7lb 15oz.

Well another early start, up at sparrows fart , usual jobs done , watered some of the tubs and veggies etc etc , fed the gang and got going to the good old Hundred House beat of the Edw , seeing that JD had a good day , a few days ago , doesn't surprise me as it's fishing really well at the mo and all beats are highly populated with brownies to be honest , absolute cracker the Edw . . . . . . .

Arrived at the bridge about five to six , tackled up , usual rig , opted for a Parachute Iron Blue , as last time was some activity from them , and small sedges , and slinked down into the now very low but clear Edw , ahhhhhh bliss always great being here . . . . Took a while before first feisty fish on the Para iron blue , but lovely fish none the less , about seven inches , slipped back in . . . . Consistent sport really from about half six to be honest , all the way up , especially the pool tails today , seemed to attract the gnats just above the water , and the small trout having a pop at them . . Always fun to watch !!!!!!

Didn't do the whole beat , finished about three quarters up , covered the series of lovely little pools , always hold one or two good trout for here , and the one " banker " pool didn't let me down , nice rise to my Iron Blue , and a lovely ten inch brownie to hand , spot on !!!!

Sixteen this morning , finished fishing and bimbled back to the truck at about eleven , really good fun as always , fish ranged in size from five inches to pushing eleven , really nice wind down , and the kingfisher activity at the top end was fast and furious , hope it was just minnows they were carrying !!!! Cheeky monkeys !!!!! Lovely to see though . . .

Definitely in need of some water now , looking a tad bit sorry for itself in a good few places , two nights good rain would be just the ticket , and healthy for the resident brownies too , back here very soon , give the Lugg a bash in a few days , between shifts , as it usual holds water well even when there's been no rain for a while , spot on four hours . . . . . Lovely jubley !!!!!!!
