Rob Harrison, you are I must admit admirable, venturing out to fish that! interested to know whether you caught or not? in any case you have my deepest regard.
The shot of my rod wasn't actually from the walk around Keynsham... I cant cast that far to the river
Fishing was Saturday nearer Bath and no it was a blank - I gave up after an hour or so due to the levels rising and probably getting cut off... I was desperate to get out after 2 weeks of Christmas and flu!
...of all the liars among mankind, the fisherman is the most trustworthy.
River temp yesterday the 25-1-2014 was reading 7.6 so encouraging if your after barbel but you may struggle to find the river after the rain we have had today
I managed to find the river today but not any barbel. I arrived at about 1pm and stayed till 4. It rose about 10 inches whilst I was there and started coming over the banks in places.
Hi all. Had a good look at the river this weekend. I think its still up a bit, but with a good pace. Water clarity , clearing. Can't see down that far. No cows at avonclif at the moment, grass was very long. A real hike was needed.
