Season update and AGM

  • 30 January 2025
  • Richard Borrell

The AGM date is on the current permit and will be held at the Coach and Horses public house in Chiselhampton. All members are welcome at the AGM. If any member wishes to raise any points to be considered then please contact me prior to the meeting.

The river has generally fished better than the previous year with the best match weight of roach being 8lb plus. We have seen a good head of larger chub through the winter season when the river allowed access with the best chub being 5 1/2 lb. We are also seeing more younger chub between 3/4lb to 1lb. This is a good sign for the future. We have put in 1000 fish from the EA's Calverton fish farm. This was generally split between Roach, Chub and Bream and were put into the river downstream of the Chiselhampton Bridge. With both Benson and Top tackle now closed permits will be available from the places listed on the membership page. We will also be posting permits and an application form can be downloaded on the membership page. 

As usual we will have a list of improvements for the river. Any of our members who can give any support with work parties then please contact myself or Julian.
