Mitchell House reservoirs had fly fishing and Warmden Reservoir had bait fishing for trout (Now drained) had trout that got into stream that ran down to Broad Oak which was clean enough to a certain point for trout to survive in the pools and probably breed. But Priestly Clough had no Trout because it was polluted from factories up in Baxenden. The Canal at Altham/Huncoat had plenty fish, it should be better today than it was.
