Rain all day, rising river the colour of chocolate. All fish caught from top end between 0745 and 1100 on flavoured meat, biggest 8lb. Great to finally meet the infamous Stefan, nice bloke for a chat.

Wonderful and varied beat, with plenty of access. Fish caught on a mixture pellet feeder and trotted meat.

Strange sort of day ,started quietly but the Thunderstorm with torrential rain arrived in mid afternoon at about the same time the Barbel started feeding, managed a few up to around 7.5 lbs before the wet and slippery banks forced us to pack up a bit early ,nice to meet Stefan and get some tips for our next visit.

Fished the top end this morning. Went home about 2.00pm
4 good barbel, best 7 1/2 lbs. Lost 4 others including perhaps the biggest fish of the day when my landing net came adrift at the point of landing and disappeared into the depths! Biggest chub about 3lb, the remainder all small.
I will be returning soon. Lucky to have met Stefan. Very handy to have expert advice freely available. Will seek him out hopefully on my next return in the near future.
Only 4 canoes this morning causing no problems. A couple in one of the canoes applauded me as I was landing one of the barbel! A nice gesture.
