Redhouse Farm: Pegs 13 to 20

Peg 13

This is the top of peg 13. As you can see, the peg itself is on a stick that, hopefully, will withstand future floods. Either way, the start of this peg is just after the white gates at the exit to the caravan park next to Redhouse Farm (a reminder, DO NOT fish the section behind the farm and the caravan park i.e. between pegs 12 and 13). You can expect mostly trout and grayling here although there are some deeper pools to the far side towards the bottom of the peg where chub can be found.

what3words reference: scrambles.protects.launch

Peg 14

Peg 14 is below electric pylons - be very careful with carbon rods/poles and remember that electricity can arc so you don't have to touch the lines to be electrocuted. As long as you are careful this can be a great peg for trout, grayling and chub - look out for cover and holes for the latter.

Access to "The Sandhole"

 (Peg 11) is via a path adjacent to Easby Bridge.

Sand Hole (Peg 11)

As you traverse along the bank, you will encounter some stunning old trees such as the oak above. They have adapted to their environment and survived countless floods and continuous erosion.

Sand Hole (Peg 11)

The actual Peg number is painted on the tree.

Sand Hole (Peg 11)

The walk is worth it! When you get there this is what is awaiting you. This is a popular spot for coarse fishing , so you may find someone already there....



Access from Easby

If you are parked at Easby, then enter by this style adjacent to "Love Lane House" (also known as "The Platelayer's Cottage"), on the north bank next to Easby Bridge. It is marked as private access (for anglers only). Follow the path about 30 yards until you get to the gate

what3words reference "goodness.bandwagon.cuff", then follow the path around the edge of the field.

Peg 11A

This marks the Top of Peg 11A, in the "Hagg Losh" section. It is a long peg with a lot of different current seams.

what3words reference: "ports.topples.amounting"

To Access Peg 12

As you follow the fence around the edge of the field you will come to this style, which is used to access the bottom of peg 11A and top of peg 12. 

what3words reference: nips.secret.stun

Peg 12

Peg 12 is only visible when you go down the path after the style in the previous photo. This is barbel country! Also some big chub are found where the cover is.
