Fished the bottom 3 fields from early afternoon to 8pm - several fish rising in the slower water but non to my dry fly. I tried everything in the box.
Fished the channel with nymph and dry and eventually had a take on a dry - small fish and lost it
Water was good my catching was not.

A tough day, river still low and bites hard to come by.
2 barbel both around 6lb from faster water and two consolation chub

2 Barbel, 2 Chub

With the limited rods booked on, Terry kindly offered the pick of any of the beats between us all. I fished parts of beats 4, 5 & 6 during the day from around 1pm. The water was low, blanket weed on the stones, no observed activity or bites. Still great to be on the water.
Moved to beat 2 for the last couple of hours. Lovely water. Trying boilies for only the second time.
a half pound chub and as the light began to fade a perfect 7lb hard-fighting barbel. Well worth the wait.

1 Barbel, 1 Chub

Only one fishable and potentially fish-holding swim along the whole length, very steep banks, not helped by low flow.

1 Chub
