| COARSE FISHING |
PLEASE USE THE NEW ENTRANCE INTO TIMSBURY FISHING - CLICK HERE FOR DIRECTIONS Just because the Game season has ended don’t pack away your fly fishing tackle, give us a call or send an email and we’ll be happy to organise a superb days’ Coarse fishing trip for you. What to expect -The English chalkstreams are characterised by naturally filtered alkaline water of exceptional clarity and lush waterweed, creating an environment in which most species of fish, not just the famous Brown Trout thrive and grow to large sizes. Grayling fishing is excellent and unusually for the UK they can be caught on a dry fly even in the winter although trotting and bait fishing is often used. The clarity of the water means Grayling fishing often involves sight fishing for individual fish, creating real excitement and added interest to the fishing. The very best fishing is often in the shallower clearer upper reaches of the main chalkstream rivers and in the tributary streams. Unlike some beats Timsbury Fishing allows you to coarse fish for all species of fish (except Game) from 1 October. The River Test provides excellent coarse fishing right through the winter. |
About The Beat
