Very festive start to the day with frosty conditions. Ross on Wye looked amazing with the river steaming early morning. It warmed up as the day progressed when the sun came out. I managed one 7lb Barbel and lost a larger one at the point of netting, hook just pulled out. The Chub were in a hungry mood. Lovely day. Fished maggot feeder.

Nil return for me and brother. -3 overnight and big frost . River big , colour ok though, but despite falling river still very high. Clear skies and bright sun all day. Beautiful river but far from ideal conditions- 4oz stuffed cage feeder being pulled round back to the bank. Fished a few pegs from church to past the island looking for slacker water but other than bleak and minnows nothing working on meat pellets or maggots

River going up again stormy day had work for one barbel each????

I fished from about 2pm until sunset. River running high and fast so seeked out slack areas to present a bait. Keeping mobile and moving about kept the bites coming. 7 barbel in total and some nice chub, My first fish went 12lb 5oz and a couple of others went doubles so very enjoyable afternoons fishing. All fish caught on small baits and hooks, I found the longer hooklinks were fooling the bigger stamp of barbel.
