Hi all,

 

long time since posting here after having a couple of children.

 

I live in Bridgwater, Somerset and would like to know where the closest barbel and chub fishing is to me. I was thinking either the Bristol Avon or River Taff, but would love to know if anyone has an alternative choice.

 

Thanks,

 

James

I used to fish the Bristol Avon quite a bit so I would go for that. Congrats on the kids
