Another great launch site for paddle boarding is at Beck Wood, Linton, Collingham. A Straight forward walk of about 170 meters from the free car park. There is a 2m height restriction. This is a well maintained area and there is signage that wants visitors to respect that. Get Directions to here
Fish Spawning
I met a nice fisherman whilst photographing and we chatted about fishing and river users, they have guidance and rules in place to preserve fish stocks and rivers and when they can fish. I will certainly be a bit more careful when launching from rivers during fish spawning season, roughly mid march to mid June. Proper information at the Environmental Agency. The fish like the gravely waters edge and riverbed to spawn.
