Nicely coloured rising river. All fish caught on feeder and pellet tactics

3 Barbel, 2 Chub

First time on this beat, the fishing was hard. Tried 4/5 swims but did manage 2 barbel, biggest 6lb. No swims fishable until the dead tree swim. Then 4/5 in the meadow. Tried first swim in the woods but didn’t venture further. Will try again.

Quite a good day on a slowly rising, coloured, river. All fish caught on either meat or pellet.

Barbel 5 - 8 lbs
6 “others”.
Gave pellet a try at first but not a tap. Flavoured (spiced) meat got their attention. Inevitably, eels were interested in the meat but persisted with it and barbel bites started to come.

Mild and overcast, 0.9 (Ross), nice flow and colour, 12 degree water temp. Looked lovely (colour dropping out a bit) but fished much harder than we caught it two weeks back although we did all catch barbel. GB feeder and pellets or meat. 3 fished and 2 fishing again tomorrow in what should be better conditions.
