About Red Lion Moccas Fishery
Red Lion Moccas Fishery runs for some four miles of single bank on the middle Wye and is traditionally one of the places to try for spring salmon. There are plenty of pools and fly runs, the water passes through pastureland, and the Passport describes it as easy to reach with good wading. Canoe traffic can be heavy from 10am to 4pm at weekends in the warmer months, and especially on bank holidays.
The Passport sells salmon fishing here between 15 March and 15 June. Coarse anglers are asked to contact the Red Lion Hotel directly. All species are catch and release and dogs are not allowed. A salmon day ticket costs £37, with up to ten tickets a day. It is booked through the Fishing Passport.
