What a lovely beat and hasn't there been a lot of work done to it! We block booked this beat, so there were three anglers on it and a great day was had by all.

6 Barbel, 7 Chub, 1 Pike

Did not fish due to illness

2 Barbel, 20 Chub

Fished from noon to 5.30pm, 3 grayling to 13" and two OOS trout, largest just over 13", all on nymphs. Did try a Daddy-long-legs too but only got bites from some tiddly grayling on that, not hooked - I think they were trying to take the legs off one by one :D Some sparse mayfly hatches late afternoon, but generally quiet. Connected briefly with a larger fish which gave a couple of heavy head shakes...and my barbless hook popped out - Sod's Law that was the only one that slipped off! Beautiful beat, nice to see the care that has gone into the banksides - hardly any Himalayan balsam to be seen which is very refreshing (I made a further dent in the few left!). Thanks for a lovely day out and look forward to visiting again.

2 Trout, 3 Grayling

This was our 2nd day at White House and fished the upper stretch, 1 small Barbel and small Chub early nothing until later with 2 good size chub. Previous day we had fished off the concrete edge the with no success so moved lower down to the shingle Bank with 3 good sized chub up to 5lb all later on. All in all a lovely peaceful place to fish (extraction pump NOT running) but could benefit from some work to the upper stretch for access/more swims, as the bank is fairly steep, however can't wait to return.

Coloured water made things difficult at the Rectory today.

fished the last day and had the same result nothing seen couple of brave trout caught but no silver tourists. It felt like the river was void of fish.

Kept the tradition going with a cast or two on the last day with my mates. nothing seen or caught on the whole of the beat. River good height and colour , thought there would be fish about with the water we have had
