Barbel 5-7lb, chub 8oz-5lb. All caught on straight ledger using plain luncheon meat, no loose feed. Nice stretch but not many accessible swims.

7 Barbel, 7 Chub

Only one rod fished, the other couldn't make it.
I arrived a little late, so missed the dawn feeding. The day was bright sunshine all day, so not a lot happening fishing wise.
Picked up a 6 to 7lb Barbel about midday all the same.
Caught the other 2 barbel and the chub in the evening, when the direct light was off the water. I was very surprised not to have caught more chub, perhaps they wanted a moving bait, as I stuck with pellet and feeder tactics.
Water level was about 0.34m on the Ross gauge, so it was low, but not too low.
All in all an enjoyable trip, thanks again to WUF for securing access.

Beautiful spot. Sunny. Water fast and not easy fishing. Managed to pull out a nice Barbel and two Chub on Pellet. Lots of Chublets on float with maggot.
