Spent most of the day roving and not catching. A few small chub caught on wagglered pellets. 1 Barbel and 2 nice chub caught on rolled meat in the evening. 1st barbel for my fishing buddy!

1 Barbel, 5 Chub

Two cracking barbel in the afternoon and a couple of chub shortly before dusk. River still low, not much quick water but mostly overcast and a little cooler.

Despite my brilliant fishing skills I managed to blank today. My neighbour however managed to tempt some beautiful barbel & chub & it was a pleasure to see these very strong fish in such good condition despite the low water levels of late. I was photographer for the day. The Canada geese seem to have had a very good breeding season this year;They swam past in procession over a period of half an hour (60 or 70) & later on in the evening gave several low level flypasts. I don't suppose the local farmers will be as pleased to see them?

Very hot with very little flow. Managed 4 nice Chub on pellet and meat. Pellet fish caught on feeder and meat trotting.

The river had dropped back several inches since our visit 2 days before but the catch was similar with our group catching 10 Barbel and 2 Chub, this time the tactics were a mixture of feeder and float.

Thanks to Terry the bailiff who was very helpful.

Pleased with the catch given the hot and sunny weather and a low river. Fish were taken on meat and pellet from the faster and presumably better oxygenated water.

Although the river was low there had been some improvement in the conditions due to some heavy rain over the weekend.

Our group caught 11 Barbel and 1 Chub all to feeder tactics, we look forward to coming back later in the week.
