2 decent chub on meat. 1 lost barbel hook pull.

Our favourite beats were all booked so we plumped for here as reports in the past have been good. After a bit of investigation we settled on the fast water at the top of the downstream section. None of the 3 of us has a bite in between 2 and 3 hours fishing. So Disappointing as it looked very barbelly. 2 of us then moved further down for 2 chub (2lbers) and a pristine pound barbel. Fished the last 2 hours till 1815 up the top for 2 pound chub and a snig. Fished a variety of hookbaits with pellet feeders. Still a nice day though

See other return for 4 July.

Lovely few hours fishing on the evening ticket, had the stretch to myself, no canoes or other disturbance after 6pm. Fished a nice steady glide just 2 rod lengths out, simple running ledger with either pellets or lump of meat as bait. Just loose fed a dozen pellets by hand every 15 mins or so, no need to throw loads in. Had 4 chub and 4 barbel, all lovely condition good quality fish, best chub 4lb 2oz, best barbel 7lb 5 oz. Really enjoyable session.

Left by 10:30am. Couldn’t take any more from inconsiderate canoeists. Beaching themselves in my swim, urinating in the bushes, shouting and swearing and not paying any respect to where I was fishing. Awful experience
