Late start due to car problems and arrived on beautiful day full of optimism. Tried a number of swims but the barbel just did not oblige depsite river looking favourable. The character of this beat has changed considerably with the removal of a number of trees. At east a couple of chub turned up to the party!

No fish taken on what looked a promising day nymphing for the 2 hours spent there Looking forward to dry fly fishing later in year Lovely surroundings

Access has been improved ,but still a struggle when you can't leave anything at home.
Slow start but late afternoon really came alive ,dusk saw the barbel take an interest. Fabulous day ,first burn of the year, as in the sun and glare all day.

Beautiful weather for final day of the season for me. Had a chub bonanza on the float, biggest went 5lb 10oz. Superb sport. I actually ran out of bait around 4pm. Roll on the next season

Gin clear river and very tough conditions with bright sun. The fish were not active, and the water was still very cold. Managed to scratch a couple out on nymphs. Winter floods have changed some of the beat.

Warm sunny day, with an occasional light breeze, river running clear. Beautiful day out on the river, lots of chub (I lost count) and some bonus barbel too.
