Feedback & Reports

Arrived at freezing river conditions, plus low clear water. But still managed 7 nice chub on bread.
To cold for barbel ! Very enjoyable.

7 Chub

6 x grayling 10-12 inches, 1 x out of season trout 10 inches, trotting. A few hours on a bright and frosty morning before going on to Swansea. The river at a good height and clarity, having been high yesterday, but fishing a little slow.

6 Grayling

Tricky day, everything felt just right but I struggled to find the fish. Fantastic beat.

5 Grayling

2 Trout

The river is still low but clear. Despite the persistent rain it fished pretty well. There were a lot of tiny grayling willing to take a fly and a few of their bigger brothers, including a double header. Successful flies were a gold bead ptn and a shrimp pattern.

1 Trout, 17 Grayling

All the fish to CG in the lower wooded area, CS tried 3 pegs in the upper length without any fish to show for his efforts.

4 Barbel, 3 Chub

A nice bright frosty morning so had a couple of hours on the Arrow. Slow going until I found a small shoal of Grayling where I caught 5 in quick succession including a nice fish of 16 inches. All the rest 8 to 10 inches and caught on a shrimp pattern.

6 barbel between 2 rods a good return considering the day started at -2c with a heavy frost and the the mist from the river swirling. Usual method of pellet feeder with either pellet or boilie on the hook

One Barbel for 6lb and a personal best Chub at 5lb 1oz so not the worst day ever
