Arrived at first light, river still very low and clear, the rain from the previous day didn't affect the river conditions as anticipated. Excellent video & map directions, fished two locations.
Top section:
Fished the Fire Pit-Swim, not a lot else to choose from? Fished a 14mm halibut pellet over fishmeal & hemp through a ground-bait feeder, loose-fed 5mm halibut pellets. First bite came in the first hour after first light, lovely pristine 8lb Barbel, unfortunately the next hour was bite less, very quiet after that, so i decided to move to the bottom section.
Bottom section:
Again with limited swim choice, I fished the 1st swim by the car-park under the big oak tree, Fished ledgered meat, occasionally changing to glugged boilie through a ground-bait feeder. Very shallow, possibly only 18" of water in front of me, and very snaggy to my left in the middle, lost a lots of terminal tackle inc swim feeders and leads. Very slow throughout the day picking up the odd chub to 4lbs, and the "other" being a 2lb eel, went quiet at 1pm, so I reluctantly decided on an early finish. Canoe traffic was steady throughout the day, all very courteous and avoided my line where possible.

I will return after some well earned rain, it needs a good flush through.

Thanks WUF and the land owners for allowing us access to a great river and all the nature it provides.

Nice afternoon expected a lot more rain so given the water temp a good result.
Had a double figure salmon chase my feeder several times and large pike chasing silver fish all afternoon.
Add in the wildlife - a very entertaining afternoon
