Does anybody know the situation regarding fishing at Balderstone this season ? I heard a rumour that it was no longer with Warrington.

Thanks for that. What is the story re. Clitheroe AA and membership and possible day tickets ? I am assuming its the barbel that have made the stretch valuable and hence its not gone over to trout/salmon only. I used to fish that length for peanuts on the old Northern Anglers card in the pre barbel days and you'd often have it to yourself.

My understanding is its T&S only until the salmon season finishes in October, then coarse anglers can fish it for 3 months only for payment of ?50 to the backstabbing Clitheroe Anglers Ltd.

Johnathan,
My advice would be to get yourself a St.Helens or Wigan Card. St.helens is only 20 quid and no joing fee. It runs on the adjacent bank to balderstone a runs further down stream. It starts at the end of balderstone wood.
Plenty of good fishing to be had !!

I have fished Elston a few times, I just looked on the map and worked out were it is in relation to Balderstone. I like my float fishing and have never found pegs at Elston that are quite right, its either very fast or very slow. I had a decent day there when the river was up a foot or so but only got small fish when its normal/low. The pegs opposite and just downstream of Alston Old Hall at Balderstone were always my favourites !!!
Has anybody fished the EA stretch at Mitton ?

I'd a look at the Mitton stretch during the close season and there are a few good spots, especially where the Hodder joins. Plenty of dace and chub to 5lb so I?ve been told, not sure about barbel?
