Sea Trout fishing begins in earnest during May with the largest fish of the season often being caught during this period. Night fishing can pay dividends at this time, especially on a warm, moonless evening following a period of settled weather.
Salmon fishing in the Spring tends to be limited to the eastern rivers unless a series of floods have encouraged them to progress beyond the A1.

The lower reaches of the river will be holding a considerable head of fish during this time, the fish having entered the River in numbers when there have been high Spring tides during darkness. Any floods will encourage upstream movement and soon fish will be found throughout the lower and middle beats. Salmon will appear in increasing numbers and most pools will hold sea trout.
This is the best time to have a go at night fishing. Seldom does it become really dark and the warmer weather encourages one to stay late on the river. Night fishing can be daunting for newcomers to the experience but the rewards can be life changing. There is little to beat the take of a large Sea Trout, followed by its cart-wheeling runs up and down the pool, all in almost total darkness. Night fishing can be truly addictive.
September and October are the months when the river holds large numbers of Salmon and Sea Trout, spread throughout its length. Fish can be caught by all legal methods but most anglers continue to use the fly. Night fishing can be particularly productive but with temperatures beginning to drop and the nights beginning to lengthen it is probably best to limit it to the first two hours of darkness.
The River Ure is a river in North Yorkshire, England, approximately 74 miles long from its source to the point where it changes name to the River Ouse.
The river is good for trout fishing and really starts in April.

The River Esk fishing is located between Danby village and Egton Village on the North Yorkshire Moors.
The river is small and most of the river is subject to heavy tree lining on both banks. This gives the fish good security from predation.
The river fishes well after a water rise in the summer months.
Some salmon do run the river but it is primarily Trout and Seatrout in the river.
End of may to September offer the angler the best chance of catching.
Egton fishery offers more accessible fishing and car parking.
