Only fished 2 hours today after travelling down from Yorkshire but had a mad 2 hours with 5 barbel up to 8.15 and 21 chub up to around 4lb to show for our efforts. River was up about 2 foot on last time we fished this beat.

River was slightly up and coloured, caught all fish on meat and pellet from the first field. Other were eels

River was about four feet up and pushing through. Three anglers persevered to land some pleasing chub, including a PB. Perseverance paid of with four barbel in five casts for one of us. Freelining meat in the crease from the croy at the top end proved productive. Otherwise various pellets.
The "other" was an impressive eel.

Challenging conditions with 4ft of extra water and pushing through. Various pellets accounted for most fish. The 'other' was an impressive eel caught on Spam.

Very hot and bright day. Didn't find the walk from the parking area to the bank too bad. Or on the way back but the length of the beat seemed longer than anticipated and a little bit of a struggle over stiles, narrow footbridges and gates, unless travelling very light indeed.
Conditions still wet and slippery under foot and a bit of a struggle to get down steep banks to the available swims. But a very beautiful spot.
Fished the bottom end of the beat in the morning but no sign of life, possibly due to very bright conditions.
Moved to the top end and faster shallower water just down from the croy where the chub appeared. All had on meat/meat pellet on the feeder.

On a low clear river with bright sunshine it was always going to be hard. A dozen chub between us all caught from the first field on feeder tactics early and late.
