4 Barbel all to M.T. - his first ever barbel after two previous blank trips in flood condition. Good result in challenging conditions. All on pellet and corn.

River rose about 12'' during the day but didn't effect the fishing, all 3 of us caught so a good day all round. Main bait pellet but some on meat. Stayed at the Pilgrim Hotel, very comfortable, excellent food and good selection of beer!

Not a great start to the day. Two anglers had left their landing nets hanging up to dry at base camp so we had to drive back again. Again, swims that had produced previously were barren but we eventually caught a few barbel each.

Having been washed off the Creel at the start of the week it was frustrating to find that rebooking has to be before December 31, which is not easy as the Creel is booked most days. Rebooking by the end of the season March 15 would be fairer. On a non WYeUsk stretch a wash off rebooking is allowed for the following year. Think we might be spending more of our money with them in future.

Fished a new swim which proved to be productive in high water. Caught using just a hair rigged single pellet. Lost a few more to a snag. Fished there again later in the week an not a single bite. Location is key.
