Tackle, baits, spots and seasons — a full guide to catching Bream.
Read the guide →Wednesday, August 5
The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.
Best time — 12:00–17:00 (daytime activity).
Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason.
Today's bait — feeder rig or sweetcorn. In cold or murky water, add scent to your chum.
Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
