River dropping after recent rain and looking good. But fish not playing the game. Just the one small barbel and chub between the three of us. Disappointing sport.

Was a difficult day with the weather against us, heavy showers and the recent temperature drop but still an enjoyable day had by all. Sadly no barbel caught but 4 reasonable chub between us with 3 to myself 1 to Glyn and barbel master James drawing a blank. Enjoyed watching the king fishers and two otters that came to say hello.

Didn’t quite live up to expectations - more my poor river craft I expect. Fished 4 different swims including the bottom meadow, lucky stone and by the stile near the house. 1 Chub from each spot - best around 5lb.
Saw 5 different otters and a very big salmon leap out the water twice in front of me. A lovely beat but sadly no barbel today.
Lost a feeder and bent a few hooks on snags.

The river looked just about perfect but the fishing was tough. 2 anglers and both started near the fishing hut with a couple of early morning fish. We then moved to the field beyond the woods section and caught most of the chub and barbel. All fish were caught on meat. Had my first ever encounter with a very inquisitive otter which ended up sitting on a rock about 2 feet away from me. I thought that would put an end to the fishing and seconds later had the best barbel of the day!!
We both really enjoy fishing this stretch but experience shows that you have to keep moving!
3 Barbel, 9 Chub
