These are wonderful stretches of the Great Ouse, producing excellent bags of fish from waters as varied in character as an angler could wish for. ‘A’ section starts at Barford Bridge and the fishing is from this point upstream. The bridge swims are good for chub moving up over the first fence and on to just before the second fence is the area that proves a good haunt for the bream shoals particularly in the colder months. From this fence on the trees start and good roach and chub are to be caught again the colder months prove better mainly due to the river having a tendency to slow down on the inside. As we move up to the boundary we have probably the best part for the warmer months due to the river narrowing down and therefore retaining the flow when water levels are low. Expect plenty of roach and bream with a good sample of chub also perch, dace, pike, tench and carp.
