Fishing at Bangor On Dee - The Village and Ormrod's Beats

Fishing at Bangor On Dee Dukes Pool is my favourite pool for fishing at Bangor On Dee. The tree lined far bank offers shelter for salmon when the river is low. In higher water it can be fished from the bank or by carefully wading close to the right bank. Furthermore, it hold a good head of trout & grayling which can easily be targeted using all the main fly fishing techniques...
Fishing at Bangor on Dee

The Bridge Pool is a small pocket of water that occasionally holds resting salmon, which have moved up from Dukes Pool. In low water I have caught quite a few grayling & trout fly fishing in the shadow of the bridge using dry flies and Czech nymphs. In addition, searching the fast run down to Dukes Pool with either wet flies or Czech nymphs…
