Due to outrageous temperatures I chose to fish beat for a few hours at first light and the same amount of time before dusk.
Having walked the beat the day before I could see how very low, clear and sluggish the river was so I chose to go to bottom end in bubbly water and roll meat on the Centrepin, bite first cast then nice Chub of about 3 and 1/2lb on second cast followed by a Chublet in the next hour, I moved up a few swims but as sun rose I could visibly see Chub coming out of rivers main flow and hiding under the bushes!
Returning in evening I chose to fish the deeper top end of the beat and use the Pellet/ Feeder approach and just sit and wait ……….. about an hour before darkness the rod ripped around and a beautiful Barbel of about 7lb was landed !! It was my only bite!
Fantastic beat but horrendous conditions, all fish caught were unhooked and released without leaving the water!

Fishing Passport Comment : Thank you for this report but a polite reminder that anglers are only permitted on the property on the day you have booked.

very very hot day river low and clear 2 chub in the morning but had to wait till late in evening for barbel to show first barbel was about 7 - 8lb second about 7lb didn't weight them it was safer just to get them back in the river after a short recover rest in the landing net. river desperately needs rain/water as very low.

Incredibly hot day and you could see every pebble across in virtually every swim. 4 fished we could see the barbel in one swim and managed 2 before the remainers spooked chub to 3lb on meat and 3 eels
Lots is swims well cut out but a long walk from the car
Beautiful place.

Fished just for the evening in the lower field. All fish caught on the feeder with krill boilies. The best chub was just over 4lb, the barbel was about 6lb.

Sunny evening fishing only. All fish caught on meat ledgering. River low & slow, not much action.

Overcast to start with damp in the air. 2 5lb barbel first thing with a few chub late morning. Met my 2 mates for lunch in the pub and the three of us fished in the afternoon through to 2030. I had a number of chub on the float down the bottom and 4 more on the feeder up the top. Mr P had 3 barbel late on to 8lb. SM struggled in a shallow swim below him and really should have moved but barbel were in the area. Feeders and pellets took most of the fish, hemp and meat on the float.
