lots of weed coming down, tried the ****** swim but retreated to the 1st ****
Still weedy as main flow close in
2 barbel but only small at 21:55 and 22:30
River very clear, needs rain, maybe the ********* stretch isnt that bad,
just fished it at the wrong time...
My name is Matt Kemp, I hope you enjoy reading my fishing diary. Just some short accounts of fishing on my local rivers (usually the Derbyshire Derwent or the Trent). I try to keep this diary updated as often as possible, and I do go fishing quite often. If its not been updated it probably means I've not been fishing.
