Caught this month.
This is my first year of owning a BAA card and it really is paying dividends. I’m finding you have some beautiful waters and this month I had my first ever session on the river Avon at Pershore after pike on lures. I started of near the weir and walked downstream on both the right and left banks. The further downstream I went the bigger the fish became. The largest of the day being a very modest 11lb14oz (the one with the jigfly in its mouth), the other fish I did not weigh. I also banked two jacks. Regards Stephen Keeler.

Pershore 01
Double locked gates on Yock Lane. Pass through the gates for access to new BAA car park for fishing Pershore LB above the 'Gut'. Please re-lock the gates (BAA lock code 3590). The access is through Wick as if you are going to our Waters at Wick it is the first gateway on left past the Village "End" Speed limit sign. It is most important that the gates are locked on ENTRY and EXIT

Red letter day!
Bumped into a couple of members at Nafford today and they showed me this picture. Local Angler Dave Cooke couldn't wait to get out onto the river, after checking on the BAA fisheries work plan on the BAA web site he noted that the Fisheries team had strimmed out the Pershore R/B pegs ready for the start of the season. Dave caught this scale perfect 12lb 8oz Carp at the end of the stretch and as you can see from the colour of his hands he was using red ground bait and maggot. Colin Townsend

What's caught here - pike Feb2016
Myself and Spud had a piking session in the down stream wooded area at Pensham and Spud took this 18lb beauty on a ledgered dead bait on the far shelf. I am sure we are going to see a 20 come from this venue before long. Regards Colin Townsend

What,s caught here - Pike Feb 2016
I'm a new member to the BAA and have been desperate for a long time to catch a decent pike. My biggest previous fish was about 4 pound caught on a plug. Anyway, Mrs. was at work Sunday morning so grabbed a few hours on the Avon at Pensham. My only fish of the session was this 17lb 40z pike, P.B smashed!! She took a herring head section, float - ledgered hard on the bottom under an overhanging tree! Great mornings fishing! Robaylen.

Whats caught here - pike Feb 2016
I though I would share this beauty with you. Fishing in the first meadow at Pensham I cast a frozen gudgeon deadbait to the far bank hard on the bottom and this old lady picked it up. She was 18-1/2lb equal to my PB. Colin Townsend

What's being caught here? - Glyn Williams was trying his luck with a fly rod, not only was this his first zander but also his first "Z" on a fly rod. He did not weight it but estimated 6 to 7lb. August 2016.
