Yes thats right MrMathews i must join the BAA again. I stopped beening a member 15 to 20 years ago when they sold off all the good venues, to pay for the new BAA Club, and put the membership up a £5 a year.  But i will give them a go this year, see how things go. Do they still have all the best waters booked over the weekend.  How much is it to join the BAA this year. |

Wait until January 1st 2006. |

Purely by accident I was fishing the Grimley Section of the Severn the day before the BAA lost the rights this March - Top Barn Farm have taken it back for themselves...
Mind due the bank needs a lot of work doing to make it fishable for more than a handfull of anglers unless they fancy wading - and I caught b***er all.
