River in good condition,nice flow, with a bit of colour. T caught 3 barbel, estimated between 5 & 7 lbs. plus nice chub approx. 4lb- 8oz. E caught 1 barbel approx. 6lb. All on halibut pellet. Take advantage of farmers taxi service, worth every penny!

Another warm day with little wind to bring down the leaves. Only the odd rise, a few sedges around and lots of needle flies. Caught lovely trout at 42 cm, it put up a great struggle, and one grayling 40 cm, both on floating black klinkhammer. High visibility fly because the sun was a nuisance for the LH bank. This beat could do with some trimming of canopy to provide more access.
The bull is still in the field, very quiet. A cormorant turned up again at the same spot where there were fish rising. I have a distinct impression now that there are fewer grayling aroung. A most enjoyable day nevertheless.

River at good height, slightly coloured. Excellent conditions for fly fishing for salmon. Unfortunately none caught but did see one fish in the Bathing pool.

Very bright conditions, fished in the field above parking.
5 Barbel to 8lb 2oz, 8 Chub to 4lb. All fish caught on the feeder various baits. Nice stretch stayed at the Portway Inn good value for money.

River up and coloured following recent rain, lot of weed coming through making it difficult. Fish came throughout the day, all on pellet.

A great day, loads of weed coming down the river. Managed a 2lb chub and a mini barbel.

River up and coloured following recent rain and choice of swim limited as no access to Islands. Fished the top end where there were three swims, one of which was very productive. A heavy 5oz feeder was required today, and halibut pellet took the fish. We caught some good fish, with the biggest going 8lb, 8lb 7oz, and 8lb 10oz. 10 barbel and 2 chub to one rod and 2 barbel to the other. Weather was sunny and very warm. Less weed floating down than yesterday.

River was up and after a couple of hours trying for barbel. decided to try maggots in some slack water. Caught plenty of dace, a gudgeon which was nice and 2 chub.
