North Tyne
Bellingham, Northumberland
DESCRIPTION
he Tyne is England's Premier Salmon River - The Club has access to approximately 5.5 miles of water on the River North Tyne. This extends from Low Carriteth (upstream of Bellingham, Northumberland) to the tail of the Eals beat (downstream of the village). With several named pools (e.g. Charlton, Hesleyside, Ridings), this is the Club's longest and most productive stretch of water. Felling members have landed salmon up to 28lb. (Club Record - 2004) and sea trout to 12lb. on these beats. There is also a significant brown trout population, with fish as large as 4 pounds taken each year. Secure parking is available on all beats within walking distance of the river. In addition, the Club has a short stretch of water on the North Tyne at Houxty, near Wark. This water also extends a considerable distance up the Houxty Burn but very few Members have explored the rough going to reach the pools on the Burn in recent years. In July 2008 the Club acquired a lease for the Keepershield beat which is approximately 1.8 miles upstream from Chollerford.
