River guide
Warwickshire Avon in Gloucestershire
1 checked stretches so far — day tickets, club waters and guest tickets, each checked against the club's own pages.
The lowdown
The Warwickshire Avon through Stratford-upon-Avon is an urban river, with the Recreation Ground, Lido and Lucy’s Mill sections running past the town’s buildings and tourist activity. Summer boat traffic is part of the picture.
The named fish on this stretch are winter roach and bream shoals, while the water below Lucy’s Mill weir has a more turbulent character suited to float or ledgering tactics.
Close season reminder
Coarse fishing on English rivers is closed from 15 March to 15 June inclusive. That's the law for coarse fish on rivers — it's not a club rule, and game-fishing seasons work differently.

Species
We only tag a stretch with a fish when the club names it. Some clubs name fish across all their water rather than stretch by stretch — those are flagged on the card.

We don't publish an "ideal level" — nobody can promise one. Flood water is dangerous: if it's up and coloured, stay well back from the edge. Open River Ready
Tips & reports
Our take (editorial, not club advice): on any decent-sized river, a lead that holds bottom without dragging is half the battle — go up in weight before you go up in bait. A bit of extra colour after rain often brings barbel and bream closer in, but a fast-rising, debris-filled river is dangerous; if in doubt, don't. Weather tools built for still lakes don't translate neatly to rivers, so we haven't bolted a lake-style weather score on here.
No angler reports on these stretches yet — we'll only show real ones once our moderated river reports are live.
