Stour River Levels & Summer Points Match Results – The Autumn Atlantic fronts begin

We are now into the autumn season of Atlantic fronts bringing in the wet south-westerlies. They’ve already had an impact on the October river levels although this year there is the added factor of the adjusted water levels on the Colber stretch. To a lesser extent this has also impacted the river conditions downstream of Sturminster Mill.

For interest I have added the combined top 3 weights of the club’s Summer Points Matches.

Remember there’s a great local weather station in Hinton St Mary which gives reliable 10 day forecasts of the SHAA stretch.

Listen to Mark Wintle’s thoughts on the autumn rains and how it might affect your fishing on the Stour:
