New to game fishing

could anyone help?! I'm wanting to take up fly fishing. Being a keen course angler I fancy a change for a while and wondered if ther are any waters you could suggest I try? I can cast fairly well and have my own tackle but i'm stuck for somewhere to fish in yokshire could anyone tell me where I could start off?

Sorry not my field

Hi...we had a dabble at fly fishing a few years ago and did quite well at a fishery on the road between tadcaster and wetherby...sorry I cant remember its name...but it half way between the two towns on the right as you go towards tadcaster.

Theres also fewston and siwnsty out harrogate way....both water board venues and well stocked.

Hope this helps...I mainly coarse fish so can give you no idea as to where is actually fishing well.

Hi Ethan,

Please let me know what type of trout fishing you want to do. River, Lake or Reservoir... then i can advise on where to fish and what types of flies, lines etc. Am a qualified casting and fishing instructor so if i can help..... just ask away.
