Hi gaz, its been fishing well for roach on mag and caster,
Feeding dark ground bait with hemp seed, make your rigs up to 10 ft deep plus whatever line you have above the float, its deeper down stream of the bridge ( that’s towards scunny)
I would have at least two rigs set up one for fishing a few inches over depth and a lighter float for fishing off the bottom
Good luck

You need to be potting some choppie at 16m with a stepped up rig of .12 or .14 to a 18 or 16 hook…….you looking at catching anything on this line but hopefully some bream/skimmers and maybe a bonus tench. Your light rigs need to be at around 11m over 4 or 5 balls of g bait, id personally fish squatt and pinkie, strung out rig of 4×12’s, main rig of .5g ish with strung out droppers and 1g rig in case it runs.

If its blowing a hooley – don’t be afraid to fish tip on 16m ish line with g bait and some choppie – there’s some good fish in stainy and matches are generally won with bonus fish

A waggler fished shallow across will catch you some rudd

good luck 🙂
