Feedback & Reports

No catches to report nymphing for grayling. Water levels quite high I think and was quite coloured. Will be back another time. Thank you.

3 Chub on bread. Think we would have caught more but the wind and rain got the better of us.

No fish caught fished the full stretch top to bottom. Rain didn't help.

A beautiful day but the fish were not playing ball, no sign of a fish all day, tried pretty much everything to no avail. Fish 1 - Angler 0

It was my first time on a river with a fly rod. The river was quite coloured and fast flowing making things possibly more difficult. No catches to report. All in all a good experience. Very impressed with your online booking system. Will be back in the trout season. Thank you.

Float fished and ledgered with meat pellets and paste from 8.00 a.m. till late on the river. Coloured and rising throughout the day and no fish caught.

River was running very dirty, but we still managed 5 chub on different baits moving to several swims.

11 x grayling 6-12 inches, 1 x chub 4 pounds, trotting. A late morning to early afternoon session in the rain fishing a river already high, although not yet coloured. Eventually I called the session off as the river began to rise rapidly. There was an incident involving the chub, when something I have occasionally feared might occur, did occur. Winter chub sometimes give a reasonable account of themselves in a strong current, but generally I don't have a huge respect for their fighting ability. However, they will make a dash for a snag if they get a chance. If there's no obvious cover, the lower half of an angler standing waist-deep in the middle of a pool looks like safety. This one took me by surprise by dashing straight between my legs. Chaos for a moment, while the top section of a 14 foot float rod took on an alarming angle. Fortunately, he went back out the way he went in and I was able to scoop him into the net without any more nonsense.

Postcode would have been useful - overpriced for time of year.

Mucky day tucked under the brolly. Quiet day too but great to be out.
