Feedback & Reports

Split the day into 2 because of the weather, fished until lunchtime managing 25 Chub to 4lb and a single Dace, all on floatfished corn. A few casts with straight lead and boilie produced 2 Barbel to near 7lb and one lost on a snag.
A return in the evening with one rod and some meat produced a further 4 Barbel to 7lb 6 oz and 2 Eels to about 2lb, a very enjoyable day indeed.

First time on this beat, parking directions were excellent. A warm day and the river was pretty low as was to be expected, only fished to the farm and caught a few fish up to 8", but none of the bigger fish I was hoping for. Until the last run of the day when I hooked into a absolute beautiful trout of 13"-14". All fish caught on a nymph all safely returned. A really enjoyable day on a lovely little river.

Good days fishing but very hot . Seen 2 salmon show 1 in leaning willow & the other in spring pool.

Only had a couple of hours of fishing. Lost a large barbel at the net! Estimate over 8lbs

Very hot day.

Day 2 on Caradoc, having fished the beat the previous day, the hottest August bank holiday on record. I returned to fish below the footbridge but this time fished a different swim. Started off trotting corn, straight away catching lots of small chublets 8oz - 1lb. Unable to get the bait to the bottom, I then changed to pellet feeder and caught a couple of small barbel and later had 5 barbel to 7lb...another enjoyable days fishing.

Two Anglers, One fished the method feeder and my brother fished with the float, not a single bite all day, a lot of people walk there dogs here so we had to put up with dogs in the water, there was also off road motor bikes going round and round the lake We were very surprised at the amount of noise, but it is a nice lake and will try again after the holiday season hope its a bit quieter by then.
