Another exploratory trip to the Bristol Avon this time heading upstream from where I started on my first visit. This stretch looked just as tempting, possibly more although it was also popular with the Barbel fisherman! Think I caught 3 Chub and a couple more Dace, another lovely evening. Saw a number of spots that were screaming to be trotted so I’m looking forward to returning with my pin. Perhaps most exciting of all was peering over a ledge and looking down at a shoal of large Chub with the most enormous Roach swimming beneath them! I have never seen Roach of that calibre and at a rough guess I would say it was around the 2lb mark, all the more reason to return!
