River was low and weather conditions were bright, warm and breezy. 4 chub on trotted meat, and 9 on either legered meat or 12mm boilie. Best fish was about 3 3/4lb.

River low and clear. Barbel caught in fast flowing water to ledger. Chub to 4lb, but mostly 2-3lb, caught on float trotting meat. A few of the Chub fell to the ledger. Fantastic days fishing, but an extremely hard over the hill walk past the wood at the beginning and end of the day.

Fished the only swim that i considered fairly safe to access and eventually nearly slipped into the river. My friend could not fish at all because it was too dangerous for him to access a swim. We gave up and left.

Thanks WUF for assistance with booking.

Had to keep moving to find the fish with the first 3 swims I fished during the morning not producing anything. When I did find the right swims, it was clear they were full of chub with bites coming on float and feeder straight away. Lots of decent chub but only one which went over 4lb. The one barbel, 8-10, came mid afternoon and took a boilie almost as soon as it was cast out. Might have been more around but reckon the chub were quicker to the bait! Did have to ask someone fishing the far side not to cast over my trotting line which was only a couple of rod lengths or so out from my bank. Sensed he wasn't happy, but did as I asked.

Hard going today with a stiff northerly downstream breeze combined with extra water (albeit much needed) meaning little in the way of fly life and consequent lack of interest from the fish. Only a couple of rising fish seen all day. Euro tactics saving the blank but needed heavier nymphs than usual to get down in the deeper/faster sections.
