R13 - The Edw, Hundred House

Hundred HouseVouchers - Adults 4/ Under 17s 2.
Wading difficulty: 3

The furthest upstream of the Edw fishing, the river at Hundred House has a slower, more meandering character than the rocky sections of river further downstream. Although the river is small, there are some very deep pools that hold surprisingly large trout. The silt and gravel riverbed means the beat benefits from some good mayfly hatches. In addition, the wading is relatively easy although because of the size of the stream here, a surreptitious approach is essential.

The top mile of the beat was coppiced by the Foundation in early 2007 and is a lot more open.
