Welcome to our abridged fishing reports for the Christmas period.
While our rangers are active checking licences over the holiday season, staff are currently on annual leave so there is no commentary on conditions.
The links provided below, however, will take you to the live updated flows and weather for the river and part of the region you plan to fish.
If you haven't yet bought a licence, buy one online here and make the most of the angling over the Christmas holidays.
