River conditions - low, with little flow. No activity during the day but things improved as the evening wore on. PB barbel at 9lb 8oz on pellet fished into the flow.

River low and clear. Fished on concrete swims, with feeder tactics, a very poor days fishing.

One fish lost and a few taps.

River level not ideal but tried with various small flies - couple of bites but nevertheless had a great day in beautiful surroundings..

Cold morning made for tricky conditions. Managed a single brownie of about six inches in length - saw a few rises but couldn't tempt any to take.

Lovely day to be on the bank, weather was just too nice though. Fished from 11am till dusk due to long journey and early start for work the next day. 2 barbel were both 6lb and the cub varied from 1lb up to 5lb 2oz. I also had another good chub of 4lb 8oz. Very pleased with the chub catches as I have found them to be in short supply on a lot of the beats. Bit disappointed in the barbel but I guess they didn't like the bright sunshine. Cannot wait to come back next season!

First time booking this beat, nice stretch of river good wading. Many small takes not got to the net. Couple good fish lost as always! A good day in the water. 1 trout 3 grayling to net and a pint in the pub, we will be back.

River low and clear as expected. RB fished the top end, but didn't catch, despite trying three different swims over the course of the day. RW tackled the steep hill, and was rewarded with 10 barbel to 8lb 14oz, a 3lb chub and a 6lb pike all on mini oozing halibut flavour dumbbell pellets. Most of the action came in the last couple of hours.

Hi, not a bad day. My mate Mr Towne got two barbel in the first hour then it went quiet. I had nothing, moving three times. Then I had 4 nice fish best being 9lb. Then Mr Towne got another two late doors so not a bad day. Not a bad beat.
