There is or was "Game Fair". Most up there sell either game rods/reels or sea fishing rods/reels, very little or any coarse bait or tackle!

Apart from pike & grayling they, the "Tweed Commissioners" have 'removed' most coarse fish!

If you are going up by car you will pass Hardy's in Alnwick. Pronounced 'anik' while the river Aln is pronounced alen'? (Blame the good lady who hails from the region!)
