Feedback & Reports

Very hard day although the conditions were perfect , no one had told the fish. One lost fish at around 5:30 followed by a landed barbel if about 6lb at around 6:30 so maybe whatever was causing them to not feed is starting to end?

1 Barbel

Ross Gauge at 1.10 and rose a bit more during the day. Water temp was slightly down which may explain the lack of joy with the barbel. The chub were feeding and came steadily until 2:45 when everything switched off. Tried a few different swims and methods and Stefan was very helpful but just couldn’t get the barbel going.

River cold falling and the colour dropped out during the day. A really hard day on a normally productive beat

Another tough day at the office in the glorious sunshine, although it was -2 when we arrived. All fish fell to pellet

2 fished today. Less rain than yesterday, still mild but with a further foot of water at the start, rising by another foot and colouring up during the day. One fished at the top and one at the bottom with expectations that it would be better than the reasonable day we had yesterday. However it was not the case. Mr P had 3 chub and a barbel from a swim down the bottom which produced more in the afternoon alone yesterday. Steve had one from the top in the morning and 2 from the straight late on to boost an otherwise slow day. As has been the case recently bait changes have often produced fish followed periods of waiting.

Mild and overcast, 0.9 (Ross), nice flow and colour, 12 degree water temp. Looked lovely (colour dropping out a bit) but fished much harder than we caught it two weeks back although we did all catch barbel. GB feeder and pellets or meat. 3 fished and 2 fishing again tomorrow in what should be better conditions.
