The fishing was in a very beautiful surroundings but very slow fishing.

Fished the Rocks, the Wires and shallows but struggled. River low but weather conditions good. Managed 3 barbel and 2 eels on pellets and meat. Very long walk due to using the gate on right instead of gate on left!

Zero fish seen or caught.

Pleasant day on the river although fishing a little slow.

4 Barbel

Had another great day on this beat. Morning was very difficult however, a move early afternoon found the barbel. One of 9lbs plus and a good few around the 7lbs mark. Seems like the barbel are feeding later in the afternoon/evening.
River very low and clear. All the rain had little effect on the height.

Gale force winds and torrential rain tried there best to mar a wonderful place. Almost impossible to stand up let alone cast a fly at times due to the winds.
Had a few snatches at a black gnat dry fly but nothing till I managed a lovely, perfectly formed brownie at last knockings. Will return and hope for better weather.
Walk was fine but as 5 cars passed me on the track down and parked by the nature reserve lake it did make me wish I had taken my car down the track as it was fine if you were careful a 4x4 will easily make it all the way to the lake itself.

River was a little clouded and was pretty rainy. There was a small rise of fish. Both fish caught on upstream nymph. (Pheasant tail size 16).
