Additional information.
At just over 470 yards (400m), Old Clytha is an attractive section of left bank fishing suited to a few hours trout/salmon fishing. The croy pool is a noted salmon catch and lovely fly water, whilst the rest of the beat is perfectly suited to trout fishing.
You can fish the whole of Croy from the bank, but the section above is a long shallow-ish glide suited to wading up the middle of the river picking off rising trout.
Right at the top of the beat there is a deeper pool that holds some big trout but is only fishable for salmon with a spinner.
Parking is around 300m from the river.
