Gilling West Fly Fishers
We are a small private fly fishing club based at Gilling West near Richmond, North Yorkshire. Our members share a love of fishing, an appreciation of the environment and a genuine interest in conservation.
GWFF Membership
Fishing is by rod and line only. We fish for trout and grayling using artificial flies with barbless hooks. We operate a mandatory catch and release policy. Coarse fishing is not allowed.
This is "small stream fishing" and requires a short rod, light line and waders. Access can be tricky especially in summer. Catching the fish requires stealth and skill. A short tenkara rod can also be highly effective here.

A bank walk can be arranged for potential new members and Fly Fishing Tuition can be provided at reasonable cost for anyone interested in taking up the sport.
