    River severn perch

    Next time ill go armed with some lobworms,been wanting to break the 3 barrier for a long time but never targeted them before,allways caught them when feeder fishing. Were a lot of grass snakes about on sunday in the river, saw 3,amazing how they just float on the water when they stop swimming.
