Feedback & Reports

River very low bright conditions, only caught on stick conditions only suited one angler pool at far end on boundary looks good shame conditions were poor.

I fished bottom peg on roadside and caught 3 dace on float, minnows were a nuisance on all baits. Had one bite each on feeder fished pellet and corn, and no takes at all on luncheon meat. River low but peg looked promising.
MB fishing on comfy peg halfway along roadside fared better and caught chub and grayling on float, but nothing at all despite trying pellets and corn Agree we will both return to give it another try.

Summer levels. Fish caught on pellet feeder and trotted maggot. Two of the chub around 3lb. Barbel were small but a pleasure to see. Nice afternoons fishing!

River low and clear we fished the available swims and I caught 12 barbel all under a pound, a brown trout and a dace of about 8oz, my fellow angler caught one small chub, all came to maggot on feeder tactics after persevering for several hours on pellet feeder gave no results.

Second visit to this stretch in a month, another very good day, but in many ways a lot different to last visit, no small chub or dace . All the chub caught were large fish between 4 & 6lb and in fantastic condition. Once again the barbel were mostly small between 1lb and 3lb. I think the fact that I am fishing either a big balsa float or a Waggler with 3 or 4 maggots is more suited to catching these smaller barbel. I suspect if you fished a static bait you would catch some of the larger barbel. The other angler on the beat did have larger barbel on the feeder and pellet, But I prefer to fish the float and keep active.
Thank you again WUF

River low with little colour; overcast. Started well with a barbel just shy of 7lb in the afternoon. Went quiet so changed from pellet to meat which produced only an eel. Hoped the barbel would come on later, but they would not oblige and only a chub as darkness fell.

Moved around various swims, finally found some feeding fish in the afternoon. River pushing through quite fast. Largest barbel 7lbs.

River looked perfect with a bit of flow, colour and weather conditions warm-ish. This is a relatively small fishery with a handful of swims so I set up in one that looked comfy... Barbel fed throughout the day and I finished up with 8 barbel that included two in the low 10lbs, one around 9lb and the rest 6-8lb. Feeder and pellet again doing the business.
