Feedback & Reports

River pushing through with a little debris, but conditions pretty much ideal. Expected to be into more fish than the one 4lb splasher that I took on halibut pellet, but was not to be.

River conditions were good in respect of level and colour, pushing through with a decent flow but as always, leaves and debris making it hard to present a bait as you would wish. The morning was not too bad weather wise, but all change in the afternoon as the wind got up and rain came in and temp dropping. We managed to land 4 barbel up to 10lb 10oz despite the difficulties. meat and pellet again doing the business. Back next season without a doubt.

The river had an extra meter of water on it. I fished on the bend near the mouth of the Lugg. I used feeder tactics with meat and pellet baits. The barbel weighed between 6 and 8lb.

Just a short session of around 3 hours from 1 pm. Weather mild but strong gusting wind with intermediate heavy showers. River conditions looked good with good flow/levels and colour but a lot of leaf debris constantly interfering with presentation. Had two takes on first two cast first one came unstuck almost immediately second produced a small barbel of around 5 lb then no further action.

Blank session, river was very fast full of branches and weed coming down from upper reaches.

Upon arrival at the river the flow was just ripping through so dropped in the few areas we could but called it a day after a couple of hours.
