Nice Prince of the River weighing in at 8lb 12oz and best of the day, from Hampton Loade. It fell to hair rigged halibut pellet on a warm afternoon. Regards Andy Swatton.

Severn Stoke bag of bream

Would just like to share a recent early morning 5hr session on BAA stretch at Severn Stoke. I feeder fished fishmeal groundbait and small single worm as hookbait with 5lb main with 3lb bottom size 16 hook had over 110lb bream plus one very angry 7½ lb pike...very happy. Kevin King

Holt Fleet barbel

Craig Percival's 7lb barbel caught at Holt Fleet on double sweetcorn. From BAA Facebook page.

More Trimpley success

This 8lb 14oz fish was the best of a 20 barbel, 90lb-plus haul in a six hour session at Trimpley. All fish came to waggler-fished casters, and given the recent Forum comments about hook damage to fish, it’s worth noting that all fish were taken on size 16 barbless hooks, minimising likely injury without actually compromising hooked-to-landed ratio.

Best two

These were my best two of my last session on the Severn, one at 5lb 11oz and the biggest was 8lb 6oz when I was packing up. Chris Black.
