Float fished pellets

8 Chub

Very hot and very low, first time on the beat. Lots of dog walkers, several dived in to where we were fishing. Walked to bottom of the beat and couldn't find any areas fishable due to streamer weed but another beat I would revisit. 1 barbel, several small chub and dace.

River very low and with hot conditions we only fished late afternoon into the evening. No problems with canoes. 3 Barbel around 7lbs taken on pellet. 1 from the woods and 2 from the meadow.

Waded out in the top section had one trotting bread on the top. Had 3 trotting pellet in the deeper parts on the far bank and 1 feeder fishing pellet and 1 feeder fishing with pellet on the last swim. See why it says winter fishing in the description a lot of nettles and hard to get down to the river

Went fishing today with a colleague who has booked separately. His late arrival led to us starting at lunchtime and as he had travelled down for the day we also left a little early. I decided to let him fish the best swim, use some of my kit, offered moral support as he caught fish after fish, took photos of him with the fish and then helped carry his kit back to the car. It is after all a team game and it is not all about winning and losing! ( I clearly lost!) I cannot wait for the next session together! On a serious note this is a very nice beat albeit the woods are a little tricky even in dry weather.

Fished from 6 pm till dark. River very low! Good hatch but little activity and then only around 8pm for half an hour. Lovely scenery and thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
