Gorgeous beat rotated between swims.

Canoeists were a pain, on the whole very friendly but the longer the day went on the more drunk the groups were. We had people jumping in to the water on sight of us and making so much noise as to disturb the swims. One group even complained that they didn't know there would be anglers on the banks, even though we had no lines in the water..... Behaviour on the river is getting worse each year that I come back!

have to say first time on this beat and found it very picturesque what with the wild live and goodrich castle in the back ground .it was a shame too find a lot of the swim very over grow but the ones we did managed too use they did produce some very nice fish .

Mmmmm, tough day on one of my favourite venues as the water was rather low. However, I did have a 9lb Barbel on the first cast of the day, but that turned out to be 'first cast curse' as that was the last bit of action I saw. My mate had a Chub later on in the day, but that was it. However, we will be back!

Slow stretch of river but had an enjoyable day on the stick float with plenty of smaller fish and a few chub to about the three pound mark.

Always a delight to be on Middle Hill Court and a perfect place to fish in summer or autumn.....Fishing was very good despite the river being a murky brown colour.Caught 26 Chub and a few chublets on a combination of float and feeder tactics.Only one rod fished between 10 and 7pm so might have racked up quite a few more as this place always switches on late....Experimented with bait as getting loads of bites and it made no difference if I used pellet.corn or meat....the fish in the good conditions were having anything!! Just the one Barbel which was about 5 pounds to cap a terrific day.The only disappointment was the Chub were somewhat lethargic and did not fight that hard which was strange this early in the season and not the case when I fished at Wyebank next day.Thanks to owners and WUF for continuing to provide this splendid beat.
