used luncheon meat on size 10 hook - float fishing.
River slightly higher than Summer lows due to recent rain, river coloured for same reason.
Bright and sunny throughout the day.

Strong flow pushing through and lost quite a bit of gear. Managed one Barbel about 5lb from opposite black chalet style house. Got Chub from various swims.

River nicely coloured still, fish not quite as keen as yesterday. Nice stretch of water.

6 Barbel, 3 Chub

Heavy rain presented high water and a fast current. We initially fished near the boat pool but we needed over 6 ozs to hold. We moved back upstream to slower water where we could use 3 ozs bait cages. 2 barble on pellets, 7.5 and 8.5lbs. I changed to luncheon meat and caught 2 eels. Stopped before 5pm due to torrential rain.
A challenging day and wondered what it could have been with improved conditions.

Heavy Rain produced a very high river with a fast current. We initially fished near the Boat Pool but it required over 6ozs to hold against the current. We moved upstream to Legg Meadow Pool where slower water was easier to fish. Using pellet (small boilies), 2 barbel, 7.5 & 8.5 lbs. I changed to luncheon meat producing 2 eels. We left the bank before 5pm due to torrential rain, left wondering what might have been if the weather had been kinder.
