About the River Arrow

The River Arrow in Herefordshire rises near Gwaunceste Hill in Powys, and is not the River Arrow in Warwickshire and Worcestershire. It flows south east through Newchurch and Michaelchurch-on-Arrow, forms a short stretch of the border, then runs into Herefordshire and through Kington. It carries on east through Lyonshall, Pembridge, Eardisland and Monkland, and joins the Lugg south of Leominster, at Stoke Prior.

The statutory trout season varies by region: on the Hampshire chalk streams such as the Test and Itchen it runs 3 April to 31 October, while rivers in the Thames catchment, including the Kennet, close on 30 September. Many fisheries set shorter dates of their own within that window, and grayling fishing carries on through the winter on many beats. Check the permit dates on each beat page before you book.

05Do I need a licence to fish the River Arrow?
Yes. Anyone aged 13 or over fishing for trout, salmon, or coarse fish in England needs a valid Environment Agency rod licence, bought online in daily, weekly, or annual form. It's separate from the beat ticket or syndicate fee, so factor it in before you go.
