Gromain & The Rectory
Approximately 1 mile of mostly double bank at Erwood. Gromain is set against the dramatic backdrop of the Black Mountains. Expect a big river, some 70 yards wide in places, running over slate bedrock with the deep pools and fast runs that characterise this part of the river - classic fly water for salmon, trout and grayling. For coarse anglers, along with some very big chub and dace, Gromain has produced the occasional barbel to the fly.
The Rectory is another 1½ miles of mixed double and single bank, a few miles further downstream at Boughrood. It has several named salmon pools and is also one of the best trout and grayling waters on the upper river. Both beats suitable for fly fishers at all levels. The wading is difficult in places so chest waders with felt and/or studded soles are an absolute must.
