3 of us fished 6am - 11am then came back on the evening 6pm - 9pm, 5 barbel caught between us using feeder tactics on 8mm banded pellet. Biggest came to 8.8lb.
For 3 people this beat isn't recommended as there are probably 3 pegs to fish on the full beat and a really long walk to the limit of the beat where the pegs are available. I don't think we will return to this one but some big fish to be caught if travelling alone.

Nice to get out and catch a few even if the river doesn't look at its best at the moment. Whenever I fish this beat I can't but wonder why they made the footbridge part way along the beat quite so narrow.

River very low and weather bright this evening. I also probably made a mistake in fishing familiar swims rather than adapting better to the conditions. Anyway, the result was a clutch of insignificant chub and no sign of barbel, whichever bait I offered them.
