 Just down fishing down on the Bristol Avon in Saltford to spend the last 15 minutes trying to whack down a load of scrub to find a spot to fish in. I'll show you where I'm fishing. That's what it originally looked like. Basically it's quite shallow just upstream and I'm just going to use up some bait that I've got left over from the week's coaching. Really manky load of casters that 90% of those are going to float. Some ground bait mixed in with some micro pellet and I think the pinkies are turning as well. Yep they're all turned. The main purpose really is to cut the swim out and perhaps start pre-baiting it as a spot. It gets fished a hell of a lot by you know pleasure anglers. Right where you can park the car in the Saltford shallows. But people just don't want to walk anywhere do they? I'm going to use a 15 foot waggler rod four pound mainline. I have a choice of four floats. Five number four, again Y stem and a two AA insert waggler. All adrenaline six BB stick and all of these floats apart from that one for faster moving water. So that's probably the best out of the bad bunch. Look at something that's fished just off bottom. I can't fish 17 foot. Number eight snither hook link. Number six is actually longer distances between each shot up to the float and they're spread out and I'll be laying laying the float down in case there's fish feeding on the drop. So I've been looking forward to coming back out on the river since it's opened up again. But it's been too hot. I was just standing up paddle waters as well. That's another reason why I didn't fish it in the summer. One roach. Johnny. That ground bait in. They're gradually getting slightly bigger. I've been intrigued to know whether they're going to intercept baits because I can't get the depth fish float rod. Because of these old manky cast there's a lot of them are floating and it's causing quite a lot of attention on the surface from fish which I'm assuming a chub now shallered up to about three foot. There's plenty of roach. Yeah I've been using up small plates. I teach kids to fish and that's all left over from the week. Yeah I did try and do it more locally but my face didn't fit. I had to go further afield. I have to say years ago I did try and fish an upper under street lake and they had so many rules up there. Yeah they got they invited me on to their committee and it turned out the only reason why they wanted me to join the committee was so that they could use my coaching to get a planning permission put through for their supposed teaching hut that they wanted to build on the lakes. There we go a little chub. I hope they'll get bigger. Fishing became very much about all carp and boilies and all that. That's not the kind of fish that I like. It's going it is going back to what you probably used to enjoy. Well good luck. Cheers. Maybe I'll see you again. Yeah I hope so. Obviously just like the tree come on. Catch those all evening. Nice fish. Right so my last for my last trick I'm just gonna fish as deep as I possibly can on my float rod. I reckon I might be able to reach the bottom just in front of me where I've been feeding this afternoon and I'm going to hold the float back and see if there's anything bigger or better down there feeding on the on the ground bait that I've been bringing. All right it's got cold as it is the 1st of October I think the 2nd of October I've just caught that which I think. Hard in the maggots because it's time to go and I've got a nice bream. Silver bream or common bream. Difficult to tell I'm not very good at telling the difference in silver bream. Common bream I'm saying common bream but it's either not big enough to be a silver. Very pleasing though.
