Reading the angling press one might think river fishing has been at its best this autumn. I would beg to differ - virtually every fishing trip I have ventured on over the last three months has presented me with gin clear water and levels that are as low as I can remember. To add to that the sun always seen to shine too! Yes, I have caught some nice fish, but I certainly haven't been presented with the "bonanza" that the press appears to think is out there. Small hooks and baits have given me some nice fish but I do long for some rain and the chance to use some more traditional rigs and baits. Has anyone else out there similar experiences or is it just my imagination?
Oh and just a small request - could someone at BAA please look into improving the access to the 3rd meadow at Stacklands- sooner or later someone is going to injure themselves badly on that lethal rusty gate.

Re: Autumn struggle
The Severn needs 10ft on it to flush it through, the Avon....well, that's not been up since June. A good 5ft will do it the world of good. Conditions for barbel at the moment are dreadful!
