Re: Severn StokeRe. the original post that also mentioned Bransford - I've fished Bransford for nearly 40 years and it has definitely tailed off the last few years. Best pegs are now the deeper ones at the bottom of the stretch, there ain't a lot until the pump peg. When my club used to have the whole stretch before it got sold, divvied up and part restricted, the best pegs were the top narrow bit, barbel alley. All changed now!

Re: Severn StokeSevern Stoke's never been a prolific barbel water, going back 35 years it's not been anywhere near as good as Beauchamp Court and the top and bottom of Clevelode used to be (yes obviously they were WDUAA but most people in the area had both books back then).

Re: girling anglingSounds interesting! Great stretch too, always enjoyed matches on the other bank, good mixed fishery. I'd definitely be interested in finding out more.

Clubs that focus on river matches?May be a simple answer to this, but are there any clubs that focus on matches on BAA river venues these days? I learned match fishing back in the 80s on the Severn, Avon and Wye, and have recently returned to fishing after a break of many years to find that everybody fishes puddles with guaranteed kamikaze carp rather than using the many river venues we have available.

Re: River Salwarpe at Clains BARBELNot many of either in the Swarpe until there's good colour and extra water on the Severn. Decent roach fishing at the mouth, but it's a very peggy stream on a low river.
