Very hard day, 1 chub from a swim in the field, 4 of us booked in and not much space in the woods for all of us, as far as in aware 2 barbel and 1 chub between the 4 of us all day.. very hard going.

Just as others have said, not much swim choice with four people and high-ish water, but the fish weren't having anything. Big pellet/small pellet, halibut/robin red, spicy meat, smelly paste, garlic boilie, sweet boilie, chopped, whole or barrel. Not a touch. Maybe should have taken maggots.

Fantastic days fishing on a rapidly rising river. All fish falling to either pellets or meat on the hook and feeder. Struggled to hold bottom as the day went on, so switched to heavy ledgers. A great day all round!

Barbel 5 - 8 lbs
6 “others”.
Gave pellet a try at first but not a tap. Flavoured (spiced) meat got their attention. Inevitably, eels were interested in the meat but persisted with it and barbel bites started to come.

1 Barbel caught on flavoured meat, 2 barbel lost & 1 other (chub or eel?) Due to debris coming down.
Only fished for 2hrs as rain made banks very very slippery, just about made it out (on all fours!!)
Gutted as the Barbel were really on the feed! Lesson learned. Spikes on boots reqd! Love this beat,never disappoints.
