My favourite swim wasn’t fishable due to a fallen tree so I fished a peg with a lot of streamer weed in close. Dropped luncheon meat in gaps in the weed - bites straight away. Lost the first two through not getting their heads up quickly enough but I soon learnt. Only fished for an hour until the rains came - biggest two chub were 5lb. Never thought I’d catch in that swim with so much weed present but it just goes to show! Please sort out that fallen tree ( near where the farm dumps / burns it’s rubbish ) - I love that swim (!)

6 nice barbel and 2 decent chub trotting meat

6 Barbel, 2 Chub

Really good to get access from the bottom end of the Fishery.

3 Barbel, 8 Chub

Nice amount of water, but the number of large fallen trees really spoil this beat, only sign of life were crayfish, otter prints and remains of at least three crayfish and otter spraint on a large pebble, assuming tney are signal crayfish by their size and blue colour, at least the otter is thinning them out! Slower pools had distinct grey/blue tinge to the water, sawmill? Who knows, but not as bad as the Wye below Hereford, shameful whats happened to our local rivers and streams over the last ten years. Ideal salmon spawning stream but no sign of part or any fish for that matter! Nil point!

Fish caught on a variety of ledgered baits in fast water.Pellets, luncheon meat and polish sausage all took fish.
Perfect weather conditions today -cloudy, with rain. The river looks better than it did this time last year although there is still algae evident on the gravel bed.
All barbel and chub were between 3 and 5lb.
Good to see plenty of Birdlife including a Dipper and Kingfisher . Only 3 canoes all afternoon ( the rain helped!).
