New member North Yorkshire - Talk Angling fishing chat and tackle advice

Help !!! Been away from the match angling scene for far too long (6 years) and want to get back to fishing.

I used to live in Leeds and spent most of my fishing time on the Trent, but approx 3 years ago I moved up to Skipton. So, after spending an afternoon cleaning all the old tackle, I have decided that the time has come to wet a line again.

I have the Aire on my doorstep (literally) but the river that high up is not suited for my style of fishing, but I understand that the Ribble which is not too far from me is probably more the type of river which I am used to, I.E. Lower Swale, Nidd, Wharfe, Trent etc.

If there is anyone from the various associations, clubs in the upper Ribble area, let me know, any information is welcome.

Cheers

Rusham

Welcome to the site Rusham, hope you get back into fishing again as I fear we are a dying breed to some extent!

The match curcuit has probably changed quite alot since you last fished them as alot of it has gone to commercials.

hope you enjoy our site and post some questions and join in the banter.

Welcome!
