North Tyne salmon and sea trout fishing
The fish hatchery on the North Tyne, just up the river at Kielder, is putting up to 700,000 young salmoninto the North Tyne River each year. Fishermen have enjoyed several magical seasons and the situation is improving annually.
There are now more salmon caught in the Tyne than any other three rivers in England and Wales, and the Trout and Salmon magazine stated in 2003 that it is now Britains best salmon fishing river. Yet a days fishing, even at prime times, costs a fraction of what is paid just over the border. A days fishingcosts on average £45, and the average weight recorded for caught fish is 14lb, with 30lb fish caught regularly. The added bonus of dam releases from Kielder Water gives the North Tyne fishing when nearby rivers are too low.
