CLITHEROE ANGLER'S ASSOCIATION - USEFUL LINKS

Clitheroe Angler's Association brings you a range of useful links here ranging from rod hire to up-to-the-minute weather conditions and environmental campaigns for our rivers.

The primary interest at that time was in trout fishing, and to that end the Association built its own hatchery on Waddington brook and employed a full time river keeper. The river was different in those days; it was noted for prodigious hatches of fly and successful Angling used traditional down and across methods with spiders in the early months of the season before switching to dry flies as the weather warmed up.
