River Avon – Manor Farm, Wasperton
Manor Farm at Wasperton provides a named Avon fishery rather than a general entitlement to fish around Barford or Stratford. The official map marks two sections on the same riverbank, with separate upstream and downstream approaches through the village. The club describes relatively shallow water, deeper conditions farther downstream, and substantial weed and reed growth in the upper part during summer. Published fish include chub, roach, perch, pike and barbel, with trout noted as occasional catches. Light float tackle is mentioned in the official description, making this a useful option for members interested in exploring the changing character of the river rather than relying on unverified specimen claims. The supplied decimal coordinate identifies the upstream car park. A second parking place has an official what3words reference but no published decimal pair. Members may drive along the bank only when conditions allow: ruts and wet-weather mud can make that unsuitable. Follow the authorised tracks, close gates, carry current membership and rod-licence evidence, and leave within permitted daylight-access hours. Night fishing is not allowed.
Rules
Only official mapped left-bank sections 1 and 2. Secure gates; driving along bank allowed only if conditions permit. No night fishing. BAA membership, appropriate rod licence and current association bye-laws apply. Check booked-water notices and statutory river close season.
