With plenty of rain the day before and forecast looking good, expectations were high. Having travelled the one & half hours I arrived just before 7am, the river was coloured and dropping. I chose the sewage pipe as recommended and after three or four casts I was rewarded with my first bite and after a short battle with a heavy fish, the hook pulled..!! After that the swim went very quiet at mid-day I decided it was time for a move, with weather improving and sun popping in and out I didn't think I'd catch again. How wrong I was.... early afternoon came with a flurry of two fish in quick succession, 1 x 7lb 4oz & 1 x 8lb 6oz then the swim went quiet.
The canoe traffic was predictably heavy, most again very courteous, some never seen a fisherman, and did not know what to do when a line is in the water.... go around? All in all it was a great day on the river, I will be looking forward to returning ASAP.
Bait - Fishmeal ground-bait mixed in with 4 & 6mm Halibut pellets, hemp & corn and banded pellet on the hook.

River very low, very clear and despite it being a Thursday their were quite a lot of canoeists, most of which weren't very good! We struggled in the day and caught only one chub until sunset when we picked up 3 further chub to 4lb.
As ever a great day, but the river desperately needs some water!

A lot of blanket weed made it hard work. Corn was the best bait.

Fished from 13:30 to 20:30 in the woods section. Fishing pellet and feeder had 10 barbel upto 7.5lbs. After 5pm it was virtually a bite a cast. The small amount of rain and overcast conditions seemed to make the difference.
Not sure whether it is an issue but three mink were observed. I know they can cause quite a lot of destruction to fisheries and other general wildlife
10 Barbel
