Have you tried fishing on the camp site river bank? I spent several hours without even a bite. I don't think others did much better.

Been there done that. The trick is to take a few tins down to the bank. put them in to "cool" and happy fishing. If you catch something.....well done! if not you probably wont mind after a "few". :roll:

I have a small lobster pot, i was thinking of throwing it in to see if i could get some crayfish, i caught eels in it on the river wye last year. I like the idea of keeping your cider cool in the water, i can imagine dozens of coolboxes with the owners names on, lining the banks of the river, just those who havnt got a hook up. :D

Rubbish, it's excellent fishing :^o :^o :^o (for small perch anyway :roll: ) I have to agree that it wasn't the most active fishing I've come across :lol: :lol:

All I got was a total of 5 little perch from 2 trips, float fishing with maggots near the bank. Ledgering with maggots, bread or corn produced no bites at all :(
There used to be sizeable chub and barbel in that river, but they didn't want to play :lol: :lol:

That part of the river was always known as a winter venue. Further down the river is supposed to be better towards Bewdley / Bridgenorth. There are a lot of good carp pools close including Larford one of the best in the country. Larford has a river section as well but I don’t river fish so perhaps someone can throw some light on the subject.

Not really interested in a match. Last year me and my boy had fun with the perch and a couple of roach but it was very slow there. Maybe we could arrange a day out somewhere else, another part of the river or a lake somewhere. My boy loves fishing when he is catching something, he is unbearable when not tho.
