Hard day today!! Fished 6/7 swims for 3 Barbel and 1 Chub. Biggest 9lbs 2oz so can’t complain. Boilie for 2 6lbers Garlic meat for the 9lber . Track down has been made good so a lot less likely to get stuck.

River coloured with levels dropping although there was heavy overnight rain the previous evening. 5 barbel caught by myself from two different swims. Unfortunately, the other angler did not catch. Both of us using the same ground bait feeder with pellet hook baits. Other hook baits tried but the barbel were only taking pellets. Banks very slippery so a dogspike and rope essential.
