Excellant Fishery and a very friendly owner. Fished the first meadow and caught the larger fish as the light faded.
Amazing scenery and wildlife. River needs a little more water and the owner is doing a cracking job of opening up more swims.
Cannot wait to be back.

A nice beat with a good variety of swims
A couple of Barbel lost to hook pulls during the afternoon left me a little frustrated, however lots of chub kept me entertained and 3 barbel in the early evening made the walk back up cardiac hill worth while

As expected a long day on a low clear river. Made the long trek up to the top end and the shallower more oxygenated water. Despite seeing barbel in the area in the morning didn't catch until last 30 mins of daylight when BS and I had one each around 6lb.
Lots of fun during day trying to catch dace on float fished sweetcorn, with each bite came the expectation that it would be a decent chub but sadly not to be. BS had one decent chub - 3.12 on the feeder.
Narrow footbridge is still a pain in the neck requiring several trips to get rucksack, rods, chair and bait bucket across it and middle stile is in a very poor state of repair and really needs looking at before someone comes unstuck crossing it.
Canoeists were well behaved and sociable on the whole and once they stopped we had a couple of visits from the local otter that appears to have a holt part way down the beat.

Arrived late but temperature still around 27 degrees when I started fishing around 17.00 hrs in bright sunshine. River back to normal summer level and clear. Action started after a couple of hours, with three decent barbel, all on sweetcorn and feeder before I packed up with the light fading fast.
