Another slow day interrupted by pretty spectacular thunderstorm. Marine based baits ineffective, sweetcorn the most successful.

Excellent stay at The Cottage of Content

River lowish and clearish
All fish on pellets. Couldn't buy a bite on the float, but a feeder in the same line produced plenty. A couple of the chub quite big, probably fives.
Barbel 5-7lb.
....and then it rained. Thunderstorms from mid-afternoon until dusk. Decidedly damp by the time we returned to the vehicles.

A great evening despite the pouring rain, thunder and lightening for most of it! Two large Barbel in great condition of 7.5lbs and 8.5lbs to ledgered pellet. Just what I wanted!
