Day started slowly but we worked a couple of swims and fished them in rotation. The fishing slowly improved throughout the day due to continued feeding. All fish were taken on trotting tactics. Most chub 3-5lb and barbel 5 to over 8lb. Cracking fights on float gear.

Gone have the days when we used to catch a good head of barbel on this stretch the chub have taken over which isn’t a bad thing some good sizes.

I fished from 2-6 PM and 8-10 PM.
The river was fairly low.
I was fly fishing on a 7ft rod using waders for river access.
The first trout was caught around 3 PM and weighed around 2.5 lbs, this fish was taken.
The secound trout was caught around 5:30 PM and weighed around 1 lb, this fish was returned.
