Feedback & Reports

Poured with rain all day and freezing cold. Caught a cold and that was about it.
Good looking beat though with plenty of accessible swims and looking forward to giving it another go tomorrow.

River very low and clear, also sun very bright all day on river. Very hard fishing. Also a lot of the swims not accessible as river too low to land fish.

Very enjoyable day on this lovely fishery. River was very low and clear and the wind was blowing a hooley but managed 3 nice barbel and an eel. Had a nice chat with the bailiff who is always very helpful. Will be back soon.

Significant change of weather overnight with temperature 10C lower than the previous day. The river was still very low and clear. Rain came all morning making the banks slippy and moving around difficult, so thankful for the ropes on many pegs. Fished a number of pegs in the morning using various pellets, but not could find a bite. Eventually changed to a large piece of meat and dropped the bait off the end of my rod tip. Bait was only about 20ft from the rod, so bites when they came were dramatic! Had 4 barbel in the period noon - 4pm, then nothing more. Largest barbel when 9lb 7oz, the others all over 7lb.
The other fish was a small chublet. I did also manage to catch a minnow that had got it's head stuck in one of the holes on a feeder. He lived to fight another day!

Overall a great day although very hot sunny conditions. Barbel caught on pellet and most chub caught on the float. Great location riverside parking, we will be back. 4 x anglers

River very low so bites hard to come by. Fished with pellet feeder. Barbel was 6 and a half pounds. Best chub was over 5 pounds.
