Fishing good with barbel showing from the start. All fish on pellet.

8 Barbel

River low and very clear fished most of the stretch and found the odd fish the best barbel went 7lb along with a 5lb fish,the best a chub around 4lb. This was the slowest day out of five booked so far, we have had a very good run this season. Another pleasant day on the bank.
Thank you

Very hot conditions as we arrived, also the otter was just finishing off what looked like a barbel not a good omen. River was very clear by noon and the fact that there was numerous anglers on the other bank spoilt the peace and quiet. Never found the barbel but at least a few chub played ball. Saw a mink chasing a duck on the bank, a great venue but will book double banks from now on. The group on the other side had a couple of barbel but made a lot of noise. A couple of cormorants about as well but all in all a good 2 days. On a weird note, a near naked man in a dinghy full of beer came down stream looking for the main road to Hereford!? Thanks WUF

Fished here on the previous Sunday when river was running fast, high and colored and struggled to catch. Had lost most of the color and slowed to a reasonable pace. Looked promising but fish fed very spasmodically. Highlight was a superb 10lb 7oz fish which my friend photographed for me. Unfortunately he cut off my head in the picture so it could be anybody holding the fish. Will have to catch it again next year.

Number of fish says it all, disappointing because the river looked perfect. Cows were a pain.

A wonderful beat although the fishing was a little more challenging than on our previous visit. Usual tactics of swimfeeder and pellets or meat were used. Barbel ranged from 5lbs up to to 8lbs. Chub were around 3lbs each. Lots of wildlife including an Otter boldly swimming downstream in mid river.

Start of a few days fishing for CM and GW. Slow during the day but picked up a little in late afternoon and we finished with 4 barbel.

The beat was tricky to find, but we got there in the end. The access to the river was excellent. Unfortunately my fishing companion fears anything that moo's, so we were limited to one field, which I suspect was not the best part of the river. Undeterred, we found a nice looking swim and I proceeded to catch a chevin first cast. A tough day followed, with a further three chub and the smallest barbel I have ever caught. My beef fearing friend struggled, blanking, which was no more than he deserved!
Nice beat, but unlikely to return until the cattle go to slaughter....
