5 Barbel, 16 Chub

Fished near the pylon swim. Not easy like same time last year. Kept on changing bait and tactics to get them. They came to either meat, halibut pellets or sweetcorn.

We fished either side of the fishing hut in what looked ideal conditions. Feeder and trotting float tactics were employed using pellet and meat for hook bait. The majority of fish caught were small chub and one dace. We did have a couple of chub in the 3 - 4lb bracket but no Barbel.

WUF please note - on the map for this beat you have the wrong access route around the field for to the Fishing Hut. It should be left once in the field and then right parallel with the river and not right then left as you currently have it, Thank you.

Slow going off the croys in the middle section (below the fishing hut) trotting down fishing the crease and also casting to the far bank and trotting down along the tree line, picking up some smaller chub and roach in the crease and some larger chub off the far bank. Moved after lunch to the fast section at the bottom just by Luggsmouth and had some success wading out and casting to the far bank; picking up maybe 15 chub to 4lb on luncheon meat.

Conditions water low and warm. Weather windy and cloudy with sunny spells. 9 chub. 13 chub let’s. Caught on pellet/corn/meat. Trotting from the creels great fun on a stunning stretch of well maintained banks.
Feeder and meat with ground bait (small amounts) successful for the bigger chub up to 4lb.
Fish tired after being caught so we held them in the current for a while before they swam away. Important with oxygen levels being low.
Thouroughly enjoyable day.

Access out of the fishery requires a mirror on the opposite side to see oncoming traffic. Can’t see over or through the hedge and it’s dangerous.
Only negative otherwise a very well kept fishery. Superb first class venue.
Water condition low and warm ( low oxygen levels)
Wildlife in abundance/ well done land owner!
9 chub caught to 4lb.
Tactics float trotting and feeder / ledger meat.

Huge fly hatch when we arrived on the water. We started off in Pylon for a couple of hours for 1 chub on the feeder. Started roving up stream where both caught chub on float and feeder.
The main action, including a lost Barbel that got me behind a boulder, came in the faster water.
Beautiful stretch of water, we will be back.
