Feedback & Reports

Clear bright hot day we both fished several swims using feeder pellet tactics which produced 4 Barbel two to each of us biggest 9Lb 8oz and two Chub largest 5lb 8oz. A good result on a hard day in beautiful surroundings.

Poured with rain all day, making the banks hard to manage. Glad we brought rope and a dog spike. Fishing slow, but enjoyable.

We love 'Saggers Court' for the setting and wildlife. The fishing suits a roving style so that's what we do.
We located a few barbel but they were literally between a rock and a hard place and so tricky to tempt although we did get one of them out which was satisfying.
A few droppers of hemp and pellet were popped in a few swims and duly fished after a rest and they produced some action on a steady day.
Wildlife today, green woodpecker, kingfisher, buzzard, tree creeper, and bird that acted and looked like a dipper but was the wrong colour so we named it 'The Twerker'.
A great day down the river.

Unfortunately the fishing was not as good as two days earlier despite the little bit of rain we had had. However, the amazing bird life kept us entertained for the long periods in between bites. Our tactics were feeders loaded with Hemp and Halibut Pellet, with Pellet or Luncheon Meat on the hook. I still love this venue though!

Cool day with light rain. River at normal summer levels. Fishing slow and moving around to locate bites necessary.
