Pool Bank

Hi, 


I've just bought my membership with the intent on fishing Knotford and the Wharfe @ Pool Bank (After June 16) but i'm hearing some pretty dire reports about the pool stretch of water. Just trying to find out if anyone has any good reports? 

I used to fish this stretch of water a lot about 18yrs ago down at the 3 corners and it was a really good fish, but I've been speaking to the local tackle shop owners and they seem to think that the water works are contaminating the river and killing off all the weed/fly life.  

Can anyone advise any other good river stretches on the book? Preferably a good Barbel or Chub water.

There are still some good fish in the pool stretch but you just have to work hard to find them,my pb perch came out of that stretch and my pb brown trout also.
