I've been thinking about organising a Bristol Avon Fish-in.
It's free fishing, tidal, thirteen foot deep, slow and fairly wide (40 yards).
Chub up to 5lb, roach 2lb?, perch, dace, bream 6lb+ and very elusive carp and pike (BIG!). Sorry, no barbel, well???
No night fishing allowed, too cold anyway!
It's where I was brought up, hemp and tares on the crowquill during the summer, maggot/caster on the wag/crowquill/feeder during winter. We don't fish maggots at all during the summer, the bleak and eels are unbelievable! Autumn and winter is the real time to fish it.
What do you reckon?
I'm easy, before or after christmas depending on interest?
