First time at Whitney. Nice day fishing. After pike in the morning then barbel fishing in the evening
3 barbel, 1 chub. Biggest barbel 8lb

3 Barbel, 1 Chub

I arrived at this picturesque stretch mid-afternoon and spent the first hour wandering and baiting a few likely looking spots. Weather was sunny and clear with the river looked great. I started fishing at 2pm and caught a small Barbel first cast, quickly followed by a Chub. After this early success the swim quieten off so I fished a few of the swims I'd baited earlier, although without any success.
Returning to fish my first swim an hour before dusk, I lost what felt like a good Barbel as the light started to fade. Packed up as night fell and headed off into Hereford for my tea followed by a night sleeping in the car (I must be Mad). I would be back the next day....
Both fish were caught on pellets having bait dropped pellet and hemp 30 mins prior to fishing.

1 Barbel, 1 Chub

Had a great day here a month ago but arrived to find river really high and flying through. Settled into the meadow area but very difficult and could only fish close in. After some advice from the ever helpful Don we managed to winkle a few out late in the day under the rod tip.

5 Barbel

All caught on pellet feeder

5 Barbel, 2 Chub

Fly fishing, river in good condition, directions could lead to confusion as a layby near allotments with gate the track is further on past the houses and track on left minor pull in on left after track. Nothing caught on the day, fishers should take note my wife was attacked by a pheasant, seems to be lot about in the area. Fishing was good easy wadding

Fly fishing, wet fly, catch and release.

Lovely day fishing, beautiful beat. Tried FCs and Devon minnows but unfortunately no luck. Saw a big salmon surface well below the bridge, but wall to wall sunshine so tough fishing. Excellent roast at Foxhunter too

Fished the morning, 2 barbel not weighed but one probably close to doubles, one 8+. Pub for lunch, and came out to find a different river, up a lot and all manner of debris coming through. Had to abandon as a result. Came up over 0.5m morning to aft. Lovely stretch, will return, but bring lots of tackle as its a minefield! Thanks
