River Churnet

The society`s stretch of the river Churnet is just a stones throw from Alton Towers and set among some very picturesque countryside. Although this water has suffered from pollution incedents in recent years it has begun to recover again following some quite heavy stocking by the Environment Agency and other local clubs. Rather similar to Sutton Brook light tackle and stealth are the order of the day on the Churnet where often the best policy is to walk the water stalking fish rather than waiting for them to come to you. Stocked recently with grayling and brown trout as well as the ever present chub this water can provide a good days sport particularly during the late spring and summer months.
