Couldn't fault the weather again sunny but with a chilly N. breeze at times. River at a good height having dropped all the week. Still needed 4oz feeders because of the pace of the stream and had several fish during the day and also had a couple of hook pulls. Best barbel 7-12.

Starting fishing the lower beat but couldn't get to grips with the fish at all, the water being still fairly fresh and fast after the previous rain. A move to the upper beat proved beneficial with one nice grayling on a goldhead below the bridge and the others on dry Grayling Steel Blue in the run below the house.

My apologies for not filling in catch details sooner, but the cottage in which we were staying had only very sporadic internet access. I landed two salmon parr and six trout, mostly small, hooking four and losing four bigger ones. They were all caught on a flashback hares ear or an Adams. The most notable feature of the day was a cow paddling down the river towards me.

River in good condition and fished well all day despite the hot weather. Misty start in the bottom field just past the gate, had some barbel and chub including the day's best barbel of 8.06. Moved mid afternoon to the "steps"swim by the first gate again a mixture of barbel and chub. The barbel here were generally smaller including a 2lb fish. Method was ledgered pellet or 12 mm boilee with pellets in PVA bags.

As usual with this beat a very productive day.
