Top Stream;

The Long Flat; runs from the top wood where there are good holding areas down to the mile marker. This section lends itself to fishing off the bank (as wading disturbs the water to the detriment of the fish) It is best suited to a nip and Tuck approach using nymphs and gold head style flies. A dry fly is worth a try if fish are rising. Good spinning water.

Mile Marker; near the milestone marker there is a point that facilitates entry to a section of reasonable wading down the centre of the stream. The exit point is some 25 meters downstream. This gives access to some very nice fly water where the tail of the mile pool picks up pace.

Tiptoe Throat; Is a continuation of the mile pool tail, entering the water above the rocks at the tail gives good access to the steamy water and numerous rocky lies - offers an excellent prospect for running fish.

Old Egypt Pool & Big Nichol Stream; A lovely tumbling run that is fishable from the bank or can be waded with care.

Beach Pool; good access for wading at the natural weir, this is a delightful shallow run that is good in late evening and early morning, and for running fish. Exit is by the big beech tree.

Windy Corner; Wade with care covering the runs at the tail - the main body of the pool is best fished after darkness.

Quarry Run; Is best treated as a continuation of the tail of Windy Comer and offers classic "GreyDark" fishing. Can be waded from the Tail of the Windy comer right down to the overhanging trees.

The Pulpit; Best fished from above the large willow bush on the comer. Cast down and across the stream and twitch the flies back over the deep hole under the bush.

Pump House; A slow pool opposite the old pump house on Castle Heaton side, can be good after dark with a good steamy tail and run at the bottom.

Pylon Run & Pool; There is a nice long stream section to the main body of the pool where the wires cross the river. Wade with extreme care as the bottom has many loose rocks. At the pool proper the main current is on this bank so wading is inadvisable.

Cauld Pool; Best fished from well back on the cauld itself covering the good deep steamy water along its entire length. From the end of the Cauld you can wade down the tail, being aware that if you go too far you will have to wade back against the flow as the bank is not easily walkable.

Mill Run; continues on from the cauld pool in a series of natural runs and pools. This can be fished either from the bank or wading ,althouhg care must be taken on the bend of the river.

The Hole; a deep pool which holds fish after running through the shallow wter donstream. the fish lie towards the far bank as well as in the run. Must be fished from the bank. Good spinning.

The above is intended only as a guide and it is the resposibility of each fishermen to determine how they wish to fish the pools. Wading is undertaken entirely at the fisherman's own risk.
