Default Good spot near Bristol...

I've got a morning next Saturday down in Bristol and I'm hoping to get
out...but don't know where to fish. I went to a small lake south of Bristol
once before - and it was OK - a small place on a farm with some nice
rainbows. But I'd like to find somewhere different this time. I wondered
about the big reservoir - Chew (I think) - but can't find a website that
gives me cost or how I could get a boat etc. Does anyone have any thoughts?
I'm a real newbie to the fly so it needs to be not too hard to cast (the
thought of a boat appeals therefore).

Thanks...

Swithun

Cheers for the site. I ended up talking to the guys and then going to Chew.
Lovely fishing - caught a nice 3 lb rainbow. Lost another 3....

Have to admit though...catching stockies is just nothing like the 4 days I
just had up in the west highlands catching wild brownies. Now that is
fantastic fishing...
