Float fishing on the Avon at Saltford near Bristol and Bath. Fishing with friends for a few hours and going head to head in a match with my mate Ross. Float fishing in the wind with a whip for some traditional roach fishing, but forced to use rod and reel to try and find some perch and bream.

Those clouds and the wind looked bloody miserable. The decades have turned me into a "fairweather fisherman" Nowadays. I think I would have skedaddled to the bird in hand ! A really enjoyable video mate. Down to earth and all my local waters as usual 👍🏻

Really good video. Glad to see i am not the only one who likes to use the silicone method to attach the rig. I have just started fishing my local free stretches of the river culm again after years of still water fishing. Rivers are so much fun and you are never quite sure what will be on the end when the float goes under.

Thanks Chris. I only stumbled on that method of connection when I bought a whip without a connector (had to look it up!), but I prefer it too. I’m guessing the plastic connectors risk snapping off on thinner whip tips with a good fish on, as the pressure is transferred to the sleeve of the connector as opposed to being evenly distributed? Loving the river fishing. Went from small rivers to stocked stillwaters, to beach fishing, fly fishing, kayak fishing and now back full circle to fishing my local river. More environmentally stimulating and as you say - that extra bit of unknown mystery

Nice silvers session, Charlie. You might have inspired me to get out on the river ribble with trotting gear Still trying to stifle my dry fly trout mode and move on to other challenges for a spell! Need more worms! 😂 👍

Thanks. It’s my walk to in 5 minutes local so it would have been rude not to. Hope you get worms 👍

I stopped fishing my local free stretch, it used to have good barbel, chub, roach and the odd carp probably escapees at flood times, we sadly have a few eastern european locals, we have notices up asking them to return fish, when leaving with fish in bags I asked them to put them back, nearly got stabbed, the police took 40 mins to arrive, and they were long gone, it's just too unsafe to go fishing now. Sad times on many rivers now, different culture.

@@Taz6688 that’s so sad to read. There seems to be renewed interest in fishing the rivers but those issues you mention are definitely a very real problem.

Lovely catches there Charles. Where did you park your car?

@Fishwish 12 дней назад

Thanks Tim. I parked on the yellows to unload and then moved my car to a small parking area next to the cycle path. It’s often full so another option is to either walk over from the Shallows car park or use one of the pub car parks, but you need to pay.
