Feedback & Reports

Nice cooler day after the earlier heatwave. First trip of the year and whilst river low the conditions were perfect and the fishing as good as normal. Some much appreciated bank work has been done with overhanging branches cut back which made life much easier - thanks to whoever did that. Eels, canoeists and other slimy things were around in numbers but all generally well behaved except one large school party that decided to stop and re-group right in front of me - "how's the fishing?" called out one of the teachers - I bit my lip hard.

Many thanks WUF, cracking day. Looking forward to the next one.

Started at 4am, before it got too hot and found some shade in the woods along walk up the hill. Caught plenty of chub on pellets, many thanks.

10 Chub

No returns

Back from the river without wetting a line by 06:00. Water temperature well in excess of 70F and running an algal bloom the colour of unmilked builder's tea. I do not believe these conditions safe for the fish, or indeed old fogies like my wife and I.
