The River Rea is a tributary of the River Teme within the broader River Severn catchment, flowing through the scenic Shropshire countryside near Cleobury Mortimer and the hamlet of Detton. This is a classic small English river offering intimate wild trout fishing in a rural setting, managed with a strong conservation ethic by White Swan Piscatorials, a club of approximately 400 members that provides both coarse and game fishing across a range of West Midlands locations. The club holds fishing rights on two distinct stretches of the Rea — one at Pinkham Mill near Cleobury Mortimer and another at Detton — and has maintained these waters without stocking since the early 1980s, meaning the trout population is entirely self-sustaining and wild.
