    Anglers killed while fishing Thames

Maybe head to throop if you want a better chance of a fish it's not far, I'm sure however that terry did fish the stour further up for barbel, Avon angling in ringwood might...

    Dorset Stour Upper/Middle

    If you check out some Terry Lampard articles that should point you in the right direction. There are barbel in those stretches but it is much more lightly fished than areas like throop which hold higher concentration of fish, and are advertised a lot more.
