76%River Wye
Ross-on-Wye · 1 lakes on site
Ross-on-Wye Angling Club’s Town Water is a cracking just-over-mile stretch of the River Wye, with day-ticket coarse fishing for a proper mix of river species. The club highlights larger barbel and pike, with Riverside Park access and a £10 bank-side day ticket.
