    11 July

    By Chris Plumb,

    River Kennet (nr Newbury)
     
    2000 - 2300
     
    Clear.
     
    2 Barbel (6lb 4oz & 5lb 14oz), 1 Bream (3¾lb) 1 dace (9oz)
     
    New swim - all fish to 14mm pellet - including the rather overambitious dace. Barbel between 22-2300 - as per usual!
     
    River at normal levels - down about 3-4 inches on 10 days ago - carrying its usual summer colour (boat traffic has a lot to answer for) - and some - just enough to be annoying - debris.
