Fished from 12:00-2:30pm before the forecast rain arrived. All but one fish caught on the ptn below a bushy klink. Jungle warfare tactics.....the river showing all of its bones and in desperate need of rain.

River is the lowest I've ever seen it.
Caught a barbel of around 7lb at first light. Moved to the fast water between the island and sat and watched 2 lovely barbel for a round 10 mins in an unreachable part of the flow feeding on some pellets that I sent their way.
Caught a small barbel of around 2lb in the flow before moving back past the church towards the bridge and catching a small chub of just under 2lb.
Campers were in the second field so didn't fish there like I usually would.
Wedding in the church and the only time I've ever finished early on a beat and needed to get home I got blocked in the car park. Bet they really appreciated a wet fisherman gatecrashing the after wedding drinks....

Just fished for a couple of hours in the morning. Very interesting and varied beat.

Was interesting to be able to see nearly every feature of the river bed with polaroids on when the water level is so low;Looks a different river. Was prospecting for chub ,but after 20 mins in nearly every run without a touch I put the coarse rod away & fished with a dry fly stripped through the faster water. I'm sure one of the trout was not a wild brownie ,but had all the hallmarks of a 'stockie'?

Plenty of water in the river, but all the same the lowest I've seen it. Fished both the bottom and top sections on the map and caught 17 wbt on a variety of dry. Most fish between 6 and 10 inches, with one or two smaller, and one or two larger.
I spooked a very, very large fish as I entered the pool just below the house which keeps their bank private. It was so big it spooked me too! Next time I'm gonna need a bigger boat.
