These some of the obstacles an Esk salmon has to go through.




Then a good result

The pics were taken between Glaisdale and Egton Bridge.
Easy ish fishing in low water, but no chance of fishing it anything above 6 inches above summer level.
Those also can be quite greedy in wanting your spinners. Pools not really big enough for the fly.
This pic is slightly down stream from previous pics.

Cheers for that Woldedge, really does look very nice there  :yes: I'm guessing it is quite expensive to fish there?

It is on the expensive side to fish there. But at the same time given the right (whatever they are) river conditions it is absolutely second to none fishing. But as they say the river is either too high, too low, weather too bright, too warm, not warm enough, it was better yesterday. But that is fishing.
Will post more pics when available.

This was on the Wednesday 30th (I believe) Jan. Absolute brilliant day weather wise and photo wise.



Same place less than 24 hours later. What a difference a day makes.

Great pictures Woldedge, the 'two pools' pic from yesterday's post look fantastic (just makes you want to go fishing!).

Is this the infamous "Dead Mans" ?

Might seem like a daft question but why do they call it 'Dead Mans'?

This is Dead Man's in high water. I am not too sure why it is called Dead Man's. I know a few people have drowned in the pool. Even at low water like last back end they say that it has some holes that are at least 20ft deep. Also there is a strong under current for such a peaceful pool.
