Fished this venue for the first time.
It is about a mile up stream of the Netham Lock and weir.
That is the last weir on the Avon,
were the Feeder Canal leaves the Avon and boats
head for the Bristol Docks. The Avon continues through Bristol
via the New Cut.
Warning
The banks here are high above the the water surface!
The gray marks on the bank opposite are caused
by the high spring tides (in the Bristol Channel / Severn estuary)
that top the weir flood up the valley?!!
I used a 5BB crystal waggler float to 4ld main line to 2ld hook
length to size 16 hook.
Baits were Maggots and Caster.
I also used my feeder rod 8ld line to 4ld hook length to 16 hook.

Snotties.!!!!This was the biggest 4 inches? Aaaagh!
