This was my second visit to this beat , great venue ! Bright and sunny today and the river was just how you want it , flowing nicely and a bit of colour. All barbel were caught off the bottom , but the best catches were the chub whilst trotting , 3 of which were over 4lb , there is no better way to catch chub , some nice dace thrown in there to , fished from 1pm till 8:30pm , evening time providing the best sport.
Brilliant day !

Very pleasant couple of hours on the bank 100m below the wood accompanied by the Memsahib which is a rarity. Chub between the lines of weed and taken on spam & floated bread crust. Two went straight for the weeds but were. extricated with full use of the waders.All very strong ,healthy looking fish. A pint & G&T in the garden of the Green Man afterwards rounded off the afternoon where I was able to explain the finer details of carp fishing & quarry size to my better half;She was either deeply enthralled or texting someone under the table...I don't know which?

First time I'v seen duckweed in the margins but despite the low water level it was a pleasant day with the fish coming steadily throughout. Pellet meat and bread all took fish. The rain started at 4pm. I stuck it out for another 2 hours and headed home. The other was a decent eel of about 2lb.

River level still painfully low and bright sunshine, with a severe thunderstorm just as we arrived making some of the wood section unsafe to fish. Extremely difficult conditions!! Fished in the woods near the faster water where we could get access. All fish were caught on the peg near the nearside snag where a small fallen tree has amassed weed and debris down the inside. Caught most of the chub on floating bread. A couple caught on freelined meat / ledgered pellet. Caught an 8lb barbel on ledgered double pellet late on.
