 River Avon - Bredon
Has the club given up the rights to fish the River Avon at Bredon?
If so, does anyone have any idea who has it now, and do they do day tickets?
Thanks in advance.

Yes. I'm afraid the new owners placed too many conditions, wanted more money plus insurance cover, took away vehicle access etc etc. Basically, they didn't want anglers. They were not prepared to negotiate.
So sadly, to our knowledge no club has the rights to ths stretch.

Well, two rods, one on the float, one on the bottom, about six different types of deadbait. Four and a half hours and..........
.......... not a bite!
The chap stalking the river with a spinning rod said he'd been there four hours and he was doubting there were any fish there!
There's always next time!
