Pleasant day. Barbel came mid morning but did not show in the evening (suspect I finished in the wrong swim). Plenty of chub of all sizes up to about 4lb legering and trotting - lost track of the numbers.

2 barbel, 6lb and 7.13lb came at last knockings. Nothing through the day except a few chub. River lacking flow.

River was low but still carrying some colour. Moved swims a lot and finally found some fish feeding in mid afternoon. Lovely stretch that I have fished before. Will be back soon

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!
