Day 2: same swims and method as previous day but only fished the island swims from 7.15am to 11.30am.
Chub visible everywhere, some only 20ft from nearside bank. Any loose feed created a frenzy of surface action as chub flew in from every direction to battle for the offerings.
Average size was around 2.5 - 3.0lbs.
Moved swims for a break and fished on feeder from one of the croys for a couple of hours but only a few chub caught.

Fished with small pellets on the hair and light feeders fished to the shelter of the far bank willows.
Arrived late and finished early. The fish were tightly grouped.

A fantastic venue with many options. We really enjoyed our time at Caradoc.

A wonderful evenings fishing despite the hot weather. Avoided the heat of the day and started at 3pm. A large 7lbs 10 Barbel second cast set the scene and 3 more followed all around the 6lb mark, all to ledgered offerings. Thank you for the strimming - very much appreciated for preventing nettle stings on bare legs!

2 carried on fishing from the day before.
A few chub in the morning but came home mid afternoon due to the heat and the lack of swims that were available (overgrown / very steep).
As mentioned in yesterdays report, i really think this stretch could do with a bit of maintenance. None of the swims have been cut out in any way & for £25 per day, we expected better fishing conditions.

I love this venue. Not too far to yomp from car to swim and a lovely stretch of water. Winkled out 2 small barbel (about 4.5 pounds) and a 3 pound chub from the upper section.
