Sorry I can't be of any help to you Laurence, but as you probably know we are in the period of time when most people are on holliday, so you may have to wait for a bit of help.

Try the Ouse, there are some good stretches downstream all the way to Ely. If you want to go a bit further (hour's drive...) they've been getting 60lbs bream and roach bags on the King's Lynn stretch at Ten Mile Bank and there are some good tench in there.

Yes, Chris, the Fens are producing some remarkable angling at the moment. I see a good few very big pike coming out of fenland this autumn and winter.
