Was I the first person to fish this beat as there were no previous catch returns posted? Nice firm hardstanding to park on had to stop on road to open gates , a bit scary when you leave as it is impossible to see traffic approaching as you pull out. It is a level walk down the side of field to get to the bank at bottom of beat, I decided to walk to the top end & start by the wood the river is deeper & slower at this end, caught a small chub quite quickly followed by 2 barbel about an hour later. After this I moved down stream & had another chub. The cows in this field are very inquisitive , they spent the next half an hour or so watching me. I decided to move into the bottom field & found a nice level swim with a nice slack directly downstream of me & caught a further 3 chub. This is a lovely stretch of river with quite a few places to access the water though the banks are a bit steep in places so care is needed. River was up a few feet & pushing through but perfectly fishable in the slacker water. Would love to catch a carp here as the beat description mentions they are present, will definitely fish here again

2 Barbel, 5 Chub
