No bites No fish a blank sadly, never mind maybe another time

Barbel activity from late afternoon. Two decent chub.

So many birds about - wonderful cacophony throughout the evening.

5 Barbel, 3 Chub

Tough day. 1 small barbel approx 2lb and several small chub.

Like all beats the river desperately needs some rain but regardless it’s a stunning beat. We fished downstream into the shallower swims and managed to locate some Barbel and Chub. Not much showing until late on as you’d expect but a very enjoyable day had by all.

Started around 14:30, thankfully the extraction pump wasn’t in use. Although it was raining the river was low and slow so we kept to the deeper water just upstream from the parking area.

Safety note; the growth next to the concrete walkway was so overgrown that only half the width of the path was useable. This meant walking was dangerously close to the 6ft drop into the river.

Other than that, a great afternoon.

Very low and clear water with hot sun which is probably the reason for only a couple of Barbel

Weather really hot with river very low but fished surprisingly well. 6 barbel caught between 5lb and 8lb and 6 small ones around 1lb. Chub to 3lb.
