I'm a new BAA member from N Wales and would welcome some advice. We're staying in Bewdley for a week from Friday 24/2 and would like to know which BAA beats are best to fish on the river locally. I'm also a relative novice so any advice on baits and tactics would be very much appreciated. Knowing how helpful you lot are I'm sure there'll be lots of advice forthcoming! Thanks in advance. Graham W.

Re: Fishing near Bewdley.

No replies so far so I'll have a go. I live about 1 mile from the river a few miles north of Bewdley

It depends on what you are trying to catch and on the river and weather conditions as they vary day to day. It's currently warm but there is a cold snap expected towards the weekend. That could change things considerably. There's rain expected so the river could be on the rise or not.

At this time of year things can change so quickly it's best to get the latest info from the local tackle shop. They are usually on top of things and can give you advise that is bang up to date. Anything I tell you today could be completely wrong by the weekend. Don't worry if the river is carrying extra water, that's when the locals gio fishing.

If the weather is kind you could have timed things nicely if you are after barbel, they can get down to feeding in the last 2 weeks of the season.

This is the tackle shop in Bewdley.

They will see you right.

Re: Fishing near Bewdley.

Hi,good advice from previous post,if the conditions are right you will catch barbel just depends on water temp on the day, any stretch from Bewdley to Bridgnorth.
If you're after roach try ribbesford baa stretch below Bewdley,river is a bit more steady if there's a bit of water on, best of luck on your visit

Re: Fishing near Bewdley.

Thanks to both of you very much for your replies. I know of the tackle shop in Bewdley so I will call in there. I understand what you're saying about the conditions so I will just have to keep my fingers crossed for reasonable weather. I'd love to catch a barbel, only ever caught two up to now but a nice roach or chub would not go amiss. Here's hoping!
