About Tillery Burn

Tillery Burn is a small upland stream in Northumberland, typical of moorland burns with fast-flowing sections over rocky substrates. The burn offers intimate fly fishing opportunities in a wild, scenic setting, though the short length limits extended fishing opportunities. Water levels can fluctuate significantly with weather, creating variable conditions for trout fishing.

Anglers should note the close season on Tillery Burn: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Access on most stretches is via club membership, an estate beat or a local permit — Scotland has no general rod-licence requirement.
