Legg Meadow, Legg Meadow Crib, Wood Crib follow downstream all providing superb fishing in the cream of the renowned Courtfield waters. Next comes Waterscross Pool a big fish holding area for salmon and barbel, followed by Boat Pool, Willow Run, Ferry Pool and the Island Pool all tried and tested barbel catches producing specimen clean fish.
With new vehicle access for the first time ever anglers can now fish this superb bottom end fishing within 150 yards of parking or drop off tackle and companions along the way, although please note the hill is steep so care is needed.
