Portna

The Upstream part of the beat lies directly below the flood control gates and is a tailwater fishery.

This stretch can be a prolific area when fish are running and offers excellent opportunities for the wading fly angler as salmon can be particularly free taking in the fast water.

Spinning is often also practised and this technique comes into its own in high water.

The lower part of the beat lies below the working eel traps and the Kilrea beat and has slightly slower water but still offers excellent fly-fishing. In addition to salmon there are also good-sized brown trout to be had in both halves of the beat.
