Not much to say really… desperately need some water in the river!
It was scorching hot today with very little shade on this lovely stretch, so I was happy to have caught 2 chub.

Fished from 4pm until 8pm with the river levels and hot weather and with the hindsight of the previous two days fishing felt it was a waste of time fishing through heat of the day,chub first cast then nothing until about 6 then another chub of about 4lb waited until 7-30 for next bite then 3 barbel in successive casts largest around 7lb did not weigh them more interested in returning them in a healthy state.Swimfeeder fished pellet and luncheon meat.

Fished the wooded area hoping to find a bit of streamy water and shade from the sun,morning session 6-10 am produced nothing,returned later in the afternoon and a double blank looked likely untill a nice Barbel of 8 lbs 12 oz saved the day at the last moment.Had a look around
Legge meadow with a view to fish there but found most of the swims were getting overgrown .Probably will not book this beat again as its looking a bit neglected and also the opposite bank has better access.

River still low and neading rain. Started off on beat 2 on the bottom of the rapids but only had one small chub. Moved around the bend at 2.00 too a deep pool nearly opposite the Boatman pub, and by 5.30 had had 1x 4lb barbel and 4 small chub on small pieces of luncheon meat, between us. Canoes ok in morning but busy in afternoon. Had a couple of salmon jumping right out of the water in front of us! Will have another go in the winter as this area looks very pikey!
