Early frost, river back to low and slow. onditions seemed perfect but despite trying a number of spots and bait options, bites were hard to come by. 1 smallish chub and 1 clonking 11lb barbel, a PB!

Thanks WUF.

Tough day, conditions looked good, although river very clear and lots of canoes. Managed a couple of nice Barbel, 8lb and 9lb5oz, lovely piece of river.

Tough day due to very high, fast water. Forced to fish under the rod tip which did still produce eventually but super hard going. Big smelly paste covered baits eventually worked.

Very difficult today, the river still very very pacy, struggles to hold bottom apart from in th me slacks on the inside. Beautiul beat though. What a lovely place to sit and enjoy a day. Would fish here again as there is a lot of fish through here! We saw them rolling in the evening right out in the main flow where we couldn’t get them.

Arrived to find the river in full flood with whole trees floating past …. however, I managed to find some slack water close to the bank and caught two fantastic barbel of 10Ib 3oz and 9Ib 6oz.
It just goes to show that it is always worth fishing no matter what the conditions. A lovely stretch of river with easy access … I shall definitely return.
