fantastic day chub to just under 5lb, barbel to 7lb

3 Barbel, 11 Chub

Great day at Middle Hill with bites from the 1st cast. Ended up with chub to 4lb and barbel to 9lb . At times I would get a fish within 30secs of the bait hitting the deck! Ideal conditions with the river up about 1ft+ dropping and a good colour with the weather warm and partly cloudy. There seems to be a good few new swims cut out in the bottom third of the beat especially for float fishing with additional parking down opposite the castle. Surprisingly I didn’t have anything in the last few hours of the evening but who’s complaining! No doubt return at some point probably in the Autumn

1 nice chub of 5lb on feeder tactics. 1 eel about 1lb. On lower stretch of the beat nearly opposite Goodrich castle. Hard going once the sun got up.

River up slightly and coloured. Fishing my favourite peg, in top beat, found it hard going with weed being washed down river. Fished from 6am to midday no sign of barbel, 10 small Chubb caught on feeder with 12mm Red Robin pellet.

Weather bad fishing great. Fish split between feeder with 8mm pellet and float fished meat. Faster water at bottom of beat was full of fish.

Good weather conditions. All 3 fished down the bottom end fishing bomb and pellet. Chub to 5lb and barbel to 8lb with all the barbel from 2 swims. The 5lb Chub fell to Mr P who had no barbel so good fish to all on a good day.
