Legering with meat, the river has good colour, the levels are on the low side slightly

River was on the up with plenty of colour. Managed just the one barbel before the heavens opened. Lost 2 good fish that came unhooked so felt a little unlucky. Main method was feeder and pellets. Fished the main swim half way down the left bank.

Lovely spot. Fished early morning and evening. Barbel on legered pellets. Chub on trotted bread. River at good level with some colour. The newbie was particularly chuffed with his barbel! We stayed with our families at the fantastic “Anchor and Can” cottage in Hole in the Wall which is walking distance

Hard days fishing, bites came at first and last light. Slow during the day as sun was out all day, luckily we had airb&b 500yard from this stretch to go and freshen up. Last two swim were the most productive.

I managed 3 david had 2 barbel, strange that no chub caught over 3 days

Frustrating day as cloud cover did not materialise so got cooked watching a stationary quiver tip. Main swim produced one bite but the fish found a snag after a few minutes and that was the end of the barbel action . A late move to the faster water brought 3 chub and 1 eel. If only I had moved earlier? River looked off colour( brownish tinge) and where are the swallows and swifts this year? All fish caught on curried meat .

Good day on perfect level river, all fish taken on pellet some on the float others on lead. Noticed this year that there was substantially greater weed growth than last year, which resulted in a number of fish being lost and some of the shallower faster swims being unfishable.
