15 Chub

Returned to this swim after two barbel the day before.

However, only chub (all 4lb+) and a small perch were taken.

The bonus were the kites, buzzards, woodpecker and owls that provided some distraction. A very peaceful spot to fish but limited swims (see previous days comments).

4 Chub, 1 Other

1 Barbel, 5 Chub

A decision between the antiques fair at Builth, and musing over overpriced boxed B.S.A .scorpion pistols and nodding Knowledgably over "happy clappy" Royal Worcester fine bone china ,OR a session on the Ithon...The fact I'm submitting a report kinda tells you who won the battle !!!! Lol
A Murky very fine drizzly morning, got there at eleven, fished the top section by the Camdwr brook , and actually a bit further downstream too, as saw knowone at the bottom beat parking area. Still hefty beef cattle in the bottom field. I'm guessing they look pretty athletic, so I'd park up and walk roadside down to bridge then cut through ....Mobile burgers weighing 1400lbs can shift !!!
Good insect life from midday lots of olives and tiny sedge on the go... fish looking up, a lot of prospective takes to my dries...with only three cast to risers ..Great fun, nine made it to the net, may have been ten.... but also a few slipped of as well, one was a particularly decent fish ....but your on a loosing battle when they hammer your dry and start swimming towards you fast !!!! Ohhh well he's there for another day !!! Fish the usual size for here eight or nine inches..... nothing huge today, but a fun on the go session!!! Kingfisher up and down, in fact two ... awesome to see as always...... River was sitting at a lovely height too, 0.104m on the NRW gauge at Llanddewi.... perfect for dries...Looks like another weather warning for heavy rain tonight and into tommorrow....Elan Valley it'll be then!! I'm actually up there twice with punters, and Nantymoch next week, lovely job!!! Cuppa time .....

River conditions absolutely perfect today and the weather was just as good but sadly no barbel again, they seem to have deserted this stretch..
Had 20+ chub. They keep you occupied but not what I was fishing for.
Used every bait you could think of over a bed of groundbait. The chub took anything and everything. Meat, corn, cheese, pellet, boilie, bread,.... The barbel are non existent. Lovely beat though. Thanks again.
