Feedback & Reports

Plenty of bites and fish showing along whole stretch. Chub mainly upstream, Barbel more downstream. Catching on feeder and a variety of baits.

A tough day, 1 barbel barbell between 4 of us, conditions seemed perfect?

A lovely warm October day if a bit windy in the morning. River was at normal levels, dropping but with decent colour. 1 barbel from top meadow and another from the meadow below the woods, both between 4-5lb and fought like tigers. Lots of chub in meadow below the woods and swims quite easy to access if a bit slippery. All fish taken on straight lead with pellets or 12mm boilies. Even with the hill one of my favourite beats, thanks W&UF.

Busy days fishing, started on the feeder, had one Barbel, before switching to trotting meat/pellet in the bright weather. Took loads of Chub and a bonus Barbel on the float, before switching back to feeder tactics for the afternoon, taking another 3 Barbel and a nice flurry of big Chub before the end of the day. River fining down and colour dropping out. A great end to a fantastic weeks fishing. Thanks to WUF for making access to these wonderful fisheries possible..

Water a bit too high when I arrived but dropping and clearing as the day went on. Trout were still very active and Grayling harder to locate. Best Grayling was 15 1/2 inches and the trout went up to 14 inches, all on euro nymphing rigs with jig bugs. Beautiful beat, as ever and I am hoping to be back after a frost or two.

Nothing touched or seen. Loud splash near bridge parapet a possible salmon. Water clearing first thing but coloured up by mid morning.
