Tough day with conditions

All fish taken before 11am

6 Barbel, 4 Chub

river level measured 1.3m at Hereford bridge, croy underwater, fast flowing heavily coloured, no safe access to river on upper stretch. All fish came from first field swims. Banks very slippery with silt from previous high water (3m+), but a number of swims were OK, although landing fish proved challenging, long landing net required.

River 2 meters up and rising slowly, moved around to try and find them, just the one Barbel willing to take a bait

Good conditions as the river continues to drop from the recent floods. Plenty of colour in the water. 5 chub to 3 1/2 lbs all on the feeder. Every swim produced through the day. Very enjoyable session.

Fished most of the accessible swims along the beat with a combination of all sorts of bait and the one that caught all 4 fish was luncheon meat. The river looked perfect for some barbel with the water temperature rising over the last week and the height at 1.65m. This is a lovely stretch of water.
