\"errwood\"<\/p>\n

Errwood Fly Fishing Club (EFFC) is a members’ club founded in 1970, soon after the River Goyt dam was constructed to provide drinking water for Stockport. The reservoir occupies 85 acres in an area of outstanding natural beauty in the Peak National Park between Buxton, Whaley Bridge and Macclesfield.<\/p>\n

Fishing rights are leased and include three feeder streams that form the headwaters of the Goyt.<\/p>\n

There is ample parking and plenty of fishing just a few yards away. For anglers who do not enjoy a long walk, the close proximity of a gently sloping bank is much appreciated. Friendship and a chat about angling supplement a fine fishing venue.<\/p>\n

Regular monthly stockings take place of well-finned high quality rainbow trout averaging between 1.5lb and 3lbs, larger fish are also stocked usually in the 4lb – 6lb range and there may also be a few suprises swimming around! These fish are bred and reared locally and specifically chosen for their fighting and eating characteristics.<\/p>\n

In addition, Errwood sustains a population of indigenous wild brown trout to 3\/4lb. These are hard fighting, take a small fly at lightning speed and will test even the most experienced angler. There are also rumours of large ferox brown trout lurking in the depths of the reservoir!<\/p>\n
