NB – We have not visited this fishery, this information was provided by www.yorkshirefishing.net
This is a massive water and it can get very exposed at times
as it is right on the moorlands. Part of this water is protected
as a site of special nature due to resident wildfowl populations.
The water is stocked with both Rainbow and Brown trout with
both fly and worm fishing allowed. Day tickets can be purchased
from the ticket machines by the lodge. Browns can be taken
between 22/03/ and 30/09/ and rainbows 22/03/ and 31/10/ with
a bag limit of 8 fish not less than 9"
Directions – the water is on the A171 between Whitby and Guisborough
– you cannot miss it.

I am moving to Driffield this year, so I will definitely plan a visit.
