What depth does New River run to?

Depth is missing from the record here. The reliable approach: the outside of each bend cuts deepest. Levels move the fishing about more than temperature.

Does cold shut New River down?

It does not freeze here. February into May fishes hardest as the water warms. Evening often out-fishes the whole of the afternoon.

What is the access like at New River?

Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Gates may be locked outside the main season. Not every stretch of an open water is open bank.

Where can I park at New River?

There is no mapped car park; leave the car where it blocks nothing. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. The smaller ones warm faster in spring.
