Anglers Asked to Exercise Caution During Ongoing Low Water Conditions

Jul 2026

River Update

The recent spell of hot, dry weather has resulted in reduced flows and elevated water temperatures across many rivers, including the River Roe, with low water levels limiting angling opportunities.

While river levels remain below normal, recent showers and a slight break in the prolonged dry weather may herald some welcome change to conditions on the river. Further rainfall is forecast, and anglers will be hopeful that more sustained precipitation in the coming weeks will help restore flows and improve opportunities for both fish and anglers alike.

In the meantime, Roe Angling Ltd. encourages everyone to continue to fish responsibly, follow best practice guidance, and place fish welfare at the forefront of their decisions while low-water conditions persist.

We thank all members and visiting anglers for their patience and cooperation during this challenging period. As we look forward to the arrival of heavier rains and improving river conditions, we wish everyone the very best of luck for the remainder of the season and hope that better fishing lies just around the corner.
