Oooh looks lovely, these fluff duffers need to get down and dirty.😊

Imo Korum is better.

Thinking about it I bought a 'Shaky Concept bomb rod when they had a clear out last spring. It would probably do a fine job. I have at my disposal a wonderful 'gonk stretch on the Warks Avon that is crammed full of them, It was one a chuck with a match rod fished stick float single maggot...

Cirencester is the nearest Town. Look for South Cerney nearby and Somerford Keynes all the lakes are there. All gravel pits that were excavated to build M4. There is a tackle shop on the main spine road in the park that will advise re dt etc. Or contact South Cerney AC.

Ok Graham..planning to have a look this weekend. Have walked down in the past but need to travel light the hill is a bit of a test. Early season Tench are calling...

Another way in is down steep lane adjacent Garden Centre but only safe when dry due to steepness. Then over field along riverside to other end of pool from the popular route. You only have one gate at bottom of lane to open.

Whilst I understand the popularity of rolling meat given the Ray Walton's excellent mastering of the technique I do wonder if it is any better than using a big chubber float tripping the bottom? It would be better bite detection rather than the 'if it stops strike' rule, and would give easier...

NFU objects to this! 🙄 .

A Torrix blank I imagine, so very good.

Cotswold Water Park South Cerney / Ashton Keynes. Look for the South Cerney A.A club for venues. Some of the best Tench fishing in the country.

An aside, the Severn was stocked with Barbel in the 50's an initiative from the Angling Times, this stocking alone brought Barbel to many other rivers.

Ahh yes my first barbel came just downstream there rt bank on Chippenham stretch. Under the arches 🙂

Yes I have a thing about watermarks too. The image is too good to signed.

Where is that stretch please, looks a bit like Christian Malford...very happy memories of the BA.

Alas we have had no Govt who have any idea at all about the countryside and the issues wildlife face on a day to day survival task. The latest offering from the 'Labours' offers a bleak picture with their plans to concrete over everything...I mean who in that lot could you consider a friend of...

No as far as I know, the times I fished there has been just me and the ducks 🙂 You might want to check out 'Setting out for Big Chub Warks Avon' you tube, that is a BAA fishery with parking behind in the clip. But it gives you a feel for the river. Also John Arthur's latest you tube offering for...
