My secret baits didn't work. The other two were lucky!!!

1 Chub

Good parking at this beat but not the most promising of days. Water was clear, low and access to the beat was limited by the now ever present barbed wire fencing which in this case is more than waist height (and I am over six feet tall). Where we could get access, the water was either running fast over the shallows or was almost stationary in very few deeper pools. Fine green slimy algae was prolific as was bank growth - predominantly Himalayan Balsam and nettles. None the less we (there were two of us) persisted and managed to winkle out a few fish.

Great day fishing, very easy access and plenty of well maintained swims. Barbel all between 4-6lbs and caught in the last 2 hours of daylight

3 anglers. Very good day. Biggest barbel 7lb. Biggest chub 3lb. Lots of action but a lot of small chub.

Never seen a reservoir so low what's happened caught one brownie very lean not surprising as where they normally feed is now dry land its a worry!
