- My salmon fishing -

Halton Beat

Fishing in River Lune is not for classic spey or over head casters...
Is only one site of river able to fly-fishing from EA. Site tightly overgrown by trees (spinning is allowed only in high water). Few places without trees are often so busy especially in Sep & Oct.

Tip
Try to use short rod (12 - 13ft) with short head spey line as there is not room to meke big loop behind you.

Private, other site at Halton Top Beat - Beware! Don't put fly after middle of the river! - is a "bit" different. Over there are all fish, as a river is deeper, so

it's great place for fly fishing in low water or even spining...

Hint: When you cast for long way with heavy bait remember to stop gently line before it get water. Then you don't frighten away fish, and can get in tight lines (with explosion of water) automatically after put bait on surface - as I had :))

Skerton Beat

. .

In Skerton you can fish both sides. Island side is more difficult for wadding, but can be better for fishing some times.

Trick
That is tide water, so check for time of water to come in before you go.
