With the weather having turned for the colder we knew water temps would be dropping and the chances of a late season barbel would be fairly remote, especially after a couple of frosts, but we decided on a day on this lovely beat anyway. As suspecting the fishing was tough although a few chub succumbed to roving tactics.

This was to be a pleasant afternoon session on one of my favourite beats. However, it turned out to be very frustrating, starting with an enormous tackle tangle, despite carefully packing my rod and gear into its sleeve, and ending with the only bite I had at sunset, from a chub which snagged me, losing all my terminal tackle. Ah well......

The river up and rising slightly after a frosty, clear night and the sun coming out during the day made for tricky conditions. We worked hard moving between swims and managed a lovely 8lb 6oz Barbel and three Chub. Quite the wildlife day also with peregrines hunting fast over the river and a very confident otter feeding in our swim.
1 Barbel, 3 Chub

Another lovley day on this wonderful river, levels were up the top croy was submerged, water had a bit of colour & was pushing through, we stayed mainly in the bottom field dropping baits in the deeper slower water all fish came to pellets fished on feeder tactics, nice & warm in the sun apart from the monsoon at lunchtime, stayed until dusk for the last fish which came around all too early
5 Barbel, 6 Chub
