Welcome to Premier Angling's 7 - Day Bristol Avon River Diary.

The aim of this service is to assist you, the angler when conditions are changing - either for better or worse !

My temperature readings and view of conditions are taken daily from just above the town bridge in Chippenham and are also based on what I see on my daily trip to the shop as I pass and view other parts of the Avon downstream at nearby Staverton & Melksham.

REMEMBER :- my temperature reading is taken mid - river , mid flow and will be higher than that taken in the margins where there is little or no flow. Therefore more accurate as far as the temperature that the fish are encountering.

If we can save you a wasted trip by letting you know how bad it is or give you the incentive to grab your kit because it's 'spot on', then we will have achieved our objective - that is to give the angler his or her best chance of a successful trip on our local waters, the Avon.
