Brief description of fishery:
Beginning at the car park the river is broad and approximately straight. About half way down there are a series of bends where deeper holes have scoured out and some patches of slack water can be found. The lowest peg fishes toward the weir at the mill The stock is mostly silvers and trout, with some good barbel for those prepared to put the hours and skill in. This can be a difficult water to fish and will challenge your skill as a river angler. Harder baits such as boilies may be required to limit the attentions of Red Signal Crayfish.
