Feedback & Reports

Went to look at the river following the previous days storms but it was found (as expected) to be totally unfishable. Extremely high water level, muddy water and fast current. We will return in spring hoping for better days!

6 Trout

Other fish - eels

4 Barbel, 1 Chub, 3 Other

2 Anglers 1 Fish each nice day

2 Trout

Brown trout, around 3/4 of a pound caught on a worm (legering). Catch and return.

1 Trout

We decided not to travel with the river level high and rising and extreme weather forecast
I will contact the office to see if the wash off would apply

Beautiful day but very windy. Frequent showers throughout the day. Very beautiful place. We mainly fished with wet flies and streamers.

Double blank today - water was up overnight and felt markedly colder than earlier in the week, so we will blame that!

Fast rising river which after a while made a couple of the limited number of swims virtually unfishable. Very wet conditions meant that that nearest 2 car parking places were unusable. The walk from the other car park is substantial and not for the faint hearted as only real route is along the road with lorry's whizzing past. More and better info about this would have been useful. Having said that the stretch did produce the most Barbel for us. All of which were caught on pellet. Other fish were Eels!

Fishing Passport Note : It is mentioned in the beat details that parking maybe subject to ground conditions. Any suggestions about more and better information is welcome.
