Im new to the manchester area and have currently been enjoying free fishing on the river Tame in stockport. Could anyone recommend any clubs in greater Manchester area? ideally with a mixture of still and running water!
Thanks Guys

Hi, not too far from Manchester is Lymm Angling Club with plenty to go at both still waters and rivers. There are a good few members based around the Manchester area and I can recommend the club no problem!!! Lymm Angling Club Home if you need to know anything else about the club and it's waters give me a shout or see my Blog, only joined a year ago and have loved it.

Really torn between warington and bay malton now! the warington waters seem to be a little closer to me being in the north manchester area. Gonna have a good look at both over the weekend cheers guys!

Hi sdtowers,

I'm part of Bay Malton and do recommend the club, I do only fish the river stretches they have. The Danes a top little river! They have 3 stretches of the Dane one on the Ribble and they have just recently took over a stretch of the River Dee. They have a lot of still waters to fish as well.

After much debating I went for Bay Malton! After much research I decided they had the best variety. Can't wait to try some of there waters!
