Feedback & Reports

Another great day on this lovely beat. The barbel are much harder to catch since the chub apocalypse but we worked hard and had a few fish for our efforts. The path to the bottom swims is worse than ever, so bring good boots and be prepared to wade.

Thanks to Colin as always for his hard work in keeping the beat in such great condition. Absolutely no thanks at all to the angler who defecated in plain view in the end island swim, leaving us a delightful early morning find. I really hope you blanked.

6 Barbel, 70 Chub

Evening session hoping to beat the heat of the day unfortunately the fish did not want to feed 1 small chub and an eel,a word of warning to anyone wanting to fish this beat the field contains a large herd of cows with calves and a livery large bull they are very protective of their calves a couple charged at me on way back to car luckily they stopped.

River very low but we managed to find a swim with fast water. Banks very steep and access hard. We both managed to climb down in the end(both oaps).Wishing slow but that was the conditions not the venue. We managed 2 barbel and 4 chub on pellets and boiles
