Welcome to AN

 

I don't know the Dee I'm afraid, hopefully somebody will be able to help.

It will depend on water flow, water clarity, water size & depth where you will be fishing, and what you are targeting.

 

Some additional info will help in giving you advice even if no one on here knows the Dee at that exact spot since rivers tend to have quite a bit in common.

hi rodey,

 

I know the dee well. where by are you planning on fishing ? and what for?

 

Chester city centre is not the best this time of year unless you're after pike, but I'm sure prince albert anglers own the city stretch now.

 

if you are happy to catch anything then head for farndon, free fishing next to the old bridge but you'll have to get there

early this time of year, eg before 7am! plenty of dace and chub to catch either trotting or maggot feeder halfway across the river. the pegs nearer the bridge are generally better.

 

if you can't get a peg there, head for eclleston, a bit nearer

to Chester. it's deeper here though so feeder would be best I suppose.

 

best of luck!
