Feedback & Reports

River dropping through the day, still carrying some colour. Quite a bit of debris in the water. Roved during the day landing 3 barbel and a chub. As always a great day on one of my favourite stretches of river.

Near enough perfect conditions, river on the high size. I had a 9.2lbs barbel in the first 20 minutues followed by a 4lbs then a 7.10lbs by 1pm. After that not a single touch. My friend KT had no bites till 2pm, then he managed to land 4 chub. Barbel very poor, we can't understand why? Overfished? River to high? The usual pegs that produce barbel were not producing any thing, pretty dissapointed.

8 barbel up to 8lb, all caught on pellet on a rising river, excellant fishing as usual many thanks.

5 fish caught, the largest was 9lb. The access road down to the fishery from the road is in a very poor state, anybody with a 2 wheel drive vehicle beware.

WUF note - This track has now been repaired.

We landed 6 Barbel to 9lbs 2oz and 4 Chub to just over 3lbs on pellet.

With the river falling and clearing we chose to fish a sociable peg halfway along the beat. Within three minutes JT had his first fish, an absolutely fantastic 11 1/2Ib Barbel. Between the two of us we had 9 barbel, fishing from 10am through to 5pm. Two 9lb and the rest all over 6lb. It seemed that this beat holds bigger than average fish.
A wonderful day and a fantastic beat.

7 Barbel to 9lb 14oz and 4 chub to 4lb 7oz were landed by us on pellet.

A pleasant day out in Autumnal sun. Five barbel came our way from 5lb to just under 8lb from two different swims out of the three we fished. River was carrying a lot of colour and dropping slowly whilst we were there.

Another tough day; 4 barbel caught best just under 8lb, river very high although dropping slightly, colour of chocolate and really pushing through. As the river dropped the flow seemed to increase. All fish came in an hour between 2pm and 3.30pm in the afternoon on boillees.

Hard going all week, just 1 barbel between us.
