    Trimpley BAA water

    the only other option is to park at Arley and walk along the river but its abt 20-25 mins to get to the res. Flat walking though.

    Photos of river scenes

    such a shame Terry, every time I visit it you just sit there and remember the good times ! I did catch 4 last season in 6 or 7 trips but 0 for 1 so far this season.

    Best waders

    Time of day

    I have to say the so called witching hour has never been particularly productive for me albeit a nice time to be on the river. I generally fish 10am to 6pm give or take, just the most convenient time.

    Bit of fun... What's everyone's preferred boilie of choice

    Ive had 9 days on the rivers so far, one on the Teme, 5 on the Wye and 3 on the Severn for a total of 20 barbel, way below what I would have expected to catch based on previous years.

    Personally I only use them with the feeder, two pellets drilled on a size 8 hair, no superglue in sight !! They still catch plenty of fish for me. that's the largest bait I use, otherwise I go down to a single 6mm or 4mm when its low clear and hard.

    Big Cat sightings

    I think your post proves they most likely don’t exist here, wildlife get drawn to human population as there is readily available food source, in which case sightings and evidence would be plentiful. I also think the photo above looks dubious.

    Baits for new season
