Feedback & Reports

River up overnight about 1'. Tried on the feeder and had one chub but almost impossible due to weed coating end tackle. Tried rolling meat and had my first Wye barbel. Switched to trotting meat and had 2 chub and a second barbel.

2 Barbel, 3 Chub

No bites - no fish

Silk weed got the better of us today, water levels look much better and both barbel looked in great condition 1 about 7lb and the other was 6lb. Even the chub weren’t showing as much as they usually do.

Silk weed wiped us out in the fast water but managed a 6lb barbel and lots of chub in the slacker water.

1 Barbel, 16 Chub

2 anglers fished.
All Barbel caught on feeder/bomb pellets and boillies in the top section of the stretch.
3 chub and 1 eel caught on float fished meat in the middle cattle drink area

all going well until water rose mid afternoon and then i couldnt buy a bite - and plenty of debris coming down made me pack up early. great little stretch of river - loads of options - float, feeder and freelining all got me decent fish - best barbel 8lb 2.

Hopes were reasonably high as we arrived at Home.
We started fishing at 8am but within literally a minute we were inundated by blanket weed drifting downriver at all levels, sometimes hauling in up to 3-4lbs of the stuff! This stuff is a menace made bad this year by nutrients, sun and low water levels. Presumably it is starting now to die off?
We went from feeder to float to free lining without a single knock. We packed up at 1pm and went to a carp puddle to put bends in rods.

Fishing was difficult but due to weed moved around and managed to find a few fish in deep water.
