The levels on Throop and the Lower Stour are just about within their winter range but the flow is such that the river is not yet fishable. Will keep you informed.

Belated welcome to FM Andy.

Iford was my childhood home and where I caught my first ever fish - a flounder from the top of the tidal opposite what used to be the golf course. My first ever experience of fishing was watching my uncle, who still lives in Tuckton, hook and land a big spring salmon on a Devon Minnow from the same spot (a long time ago when salmon fishing was worth the effort on the lower Stour).

Still get down there as often as possible, particularly for the winter chubbing, and consider that area my fishing home. The old Pony Fields and MEXE Fence (as was) being my favourites.

Is your uncle Mick? Give me a PM when you come down next and perhaps we can meet up.
