Small fish came to stick float mainly, nothing over 1lb , shame the lower peg are so overgrown compared with 2 years ago , unable to fish, this would have given us the opportunity to fish the deeper water

3 of us switched from feeder tactics to stick float, only one barbel caught on the feeder to barrel pellet, perch , dace and chub caught on sweetcorn on the stick float, unfortunately no chub over a pound, the early pegs look the part but didn’t fish as well as expected, back tomorrow

Very tough conditions in the heat and low water, tried float fishing and ledgering but it was hard going on 30c heat. Chub all came to ledgered meat, biggest 4lb 2ozs but most around 1b. Lovely stretch of water, very picturesque and peaceful.

Full sun all day.

With the river low and the temperatures nearing 30 degrees for the start of September we concentrated on fishing early morning and late evening. Some good barbel to 8lb although the fish tended to come in short bursts.
