River level falling in the morning had two barbel and a couple of eels!!! Midday the level started rising and went a bit reddish/orange?? Never had another bite but a lovely day nonetheless.

12 degree air temperature, 9.6 degree water bit quite clear. Fished 4 swims and had the only bite from a 4lb Chub an hour before close. Fished same swims I had 3 fish from last week.

Although the river conditions and weather were favourable, the fish were reluctant to feed.
Water visibility was good so perhaps should have acquired some maggots. Occasional taps and rattles using pellets but all fish fell to sweetcorn used with a ground bait feeder.
