20 Chub

A very tough day with bright sunshine and low clear river. Walked the beats from top to bottom with very little seen apart from the frequently jumping salmon. 4 of us fished wherever we couldn't see the bottom and all day caught only small chub under a pound and one barbel. Dusk produced another barbel.

2 Barbel, 15 Chub

For DW:
Four chubl;ets 1/2-3/4 lb on ledgered luncheon meat.

Another good day on this lovely beat. The weather, cool and overcast, was on my side today. The fish were taken throughout the day and were all a decent size. In between catches the leaping salmon and the swooping swallows provided the entertainment.

Gorgeous beat lots of wildlife to keep me interested as the fish had gone awol. Managed 2 chub after 14 hours of fishing and trying several different swims. River was low and wider than usual with lots of bankside erosian.

Beautiful fishery with lots of areas to go at. Thanks to Terry for spending the time to show us several possible locations. A tough day where it was essential to find where the fish were. 2 Barbel eventually obliged but, strangely, no chub at all.

Fab second day. All fish using feeder method (except the trout and one small chub which were caught on fly). The two barbel we're awesome and both around 8lb but very strong and solid fish both caught in the early evening. Had a couple of 2lb chub and many small chub youngsters. We stayed at the glamping site at Whitney Bridge which was excellent although not the cheapest but I'd still recommend it.
