Very enjoyable day again. Much harder going here than last week but not surprising as I was wading again and could tell the water was markedly colder. It certainly had a chill to it. I ended up with 3 barbel (to 6lb) which took a lot of coaxing and lots of chub which were more cooperative. A couple of which were over 5lb. I went home a happy chappy.

After a bit if leg work a number of barbel could be seen feeding in a shallow pool and once located the action was steady right through the day. Fish fell to ledgered pellet mainly but it was lovely to get out in the water in the sun and roll meat through the pool which also produced a few fish. Biggest barbel went 9lb 2oz. As others have mentioned you need to be fit and mobile for this beat and make sure you travel light but take what you need as you don't want to be popping back to the car for anything if you can help it!!

A couple of hours with the feeder rod at dawn made me realise that legering wasn't going to be productive so I "mountaineered" (you'll understand this is you've fished this beat - it certainly gets the blood pumping) back to the car to change gear and set about a day of trotting.

The forecast of an overcast, drizzly day was way off the mark as I stood surveying a very low river in the blazing sunshine. I thought I was in for a gruelling day. However, I roved the stretch and tried several swims, catching plenty of chub and barbel on the stick float. What a fantastic way to fish for them.

Chub from chublets to 4lb and barbel from 4 1/2 to 7 1/2 llb.
