Had a great day, started at 11.30 am float & worm nil, changed to mep spinner, first cast a nice rainbow
About One and a half pounds, twenty minutes later another nice rainbow same weight, nothing for two hours. Changed to worm on ledger nothing doing. Tried a toby lost two at surface near bank. I would recommend this venue to anyone. Happy fishing.

Hard work, Ideal conditions but very little fish moving on the surface, managed 2 on a black spider.
wormers seem to be having more luck fish seem to be down deep

To be honest I lost count, lots of baby barbel and chub and a couple of better barbel at dusk

10 Barbel, 20 Chub, 1 Other

River quite low, quite heavy canoe traffic morning - early afternoon, bites for static baits hard to come by, fish taken on the float to bread, after 6pm. meat on the lead proved successful, Barbel conspicuous by their absence. Lot of work being done on the swims here, much appreciated, thank you.

Water level relatively low. A lot of new plant growth proved a challenge to reach the river in places. Five Grayling brought to the net. Three caught upstream of the bridge and two below the bridge - Black Klinkhammer, Parachute Adams.
Beautiful location and a great day fishing shared with kingfishers, pheasants and yellow wagtails.

Fished for only a few hours morning and evening - weather turned hot and canoe traffic became heavy during the day. Just the one Barbel to around 6lb and four Chub to around 3lb, all to feeder and pellet tactics. Overall enjoyable day on a scenic beat, very picturesque at dawn and dusk.

Frustrating day just below Bibbins bridge, opposite the beach. Struggled to find a swim that was accessible and would accommodate 2 of us. Plagued by eels. Didn't seem to matter what we put on the hook, it produced eels. My son caught one very small barbel.

Some activity in the ferry pool. Takes were exceptionally quick with a long line out and down so several fish missed. More adventurous wading and a shorter line, perhaps high sticking, would have produced more fish.
