River Kennet - Newbury

0900 - 1400

Bright and breezy - river up an inch or so after yesterday's heavy rain with its usual summer tinge of colour.

18 Chub: Most around 6-8oz, with 5 over a lb, biggest went 4lb 7oz with the others between 1¼ - 2¼lb., 2 doz+ Dace, 1 doz Roach, 2 Grayling, 2 Bleak and 3 Brownies.

Lovely morning's trotting - great to see so many silvers in the river - especially the young chub.
