River in flood!

6 Barbel, 2 Chub

Fished the top of the bend at the top of the beat. For the first time in the week it felt like we had half a chance as there was no weed coming through. Things still proved difficult however as the water was rising with a heavy flow, and we were on the outside of the bend. I fully expected the fish to be in the slack water on the inside bend. True enough when a couple of anglers turned up and fished opposite they had perhaps 10 barbel out between them. We managed just the two fish.

Ventured into the woods, river very low but didn't seem to affect the fishing, caught steadily from 8am to 3pm when torrential rain stopped play.!

Had to wait until sundown the day before on the hut section until I had a bite I decided to fish in the woods. Hill climb nearly killed me! No really! Very sunny, slow all day until around 6pm when things got lively. A lovely spot in the September sunshine. Then died again walking back!
