Fished from 9am till 8pm , today was an absolute scorcher! We took refuge in the shade for most of the day , didn’t fish as hard as we could but netted a few throughout the day .
This beat always provides a good days fishing ,

Tough day despite the extra water and overcast conditions- first cast a Barbel then nothing for hours until two chub came along - anglers on the opposite bank struggling too.
Access to the gates at the top of the hill was via ankle deep cow dung so wear wellies !

first trip to this stretch and found the swims difficult to access.

Started fishing at 2pm in the middle section of the beat, this usually produces plenty of action but couldn’t get a bite in here . Moved upstream to some deeper water and eventually got into some barbel about 5pm , great evenings fishing , weather and conditions perfect , usual pellet approach.

the river was very coloured and pacey after 2 weeks of rain. fished the slackest water I could find close to the flow. caught 3 nice chub all over 3lb (not weighed) and a lovely Barbel, weighing 8lb 110z.
all caught on pellet and paste. Will be coming back for sure!

Surprisingly no bites even though river good height but very brown and water temperature low.

We could not fish at white house farm as the access to the river was a foot deep in mud and as we did not have a 4x4 car we did not want to get stuck in the field.

River stabilising after the flash type flood. Plenty of Chub again.
