River Trent, South Clifton

Brief description of fishery:

Regrettably, SAA have lost the fishing rights to the section accessed via Coal Yard Lane. Please do not attempt to access this part of the fishery. Negotiations are under way to try to resolve the issue. The northern section of the fishery, accessed via Trent Lane, is still our fishery.

This picturesque stretch of the tidal R Trent is rarely fished. It is fairly isolated which you may consider either an advantage or a disadvantage, depending upon your preferences and expectations.

If surface conditions permit, cars may be driven downstream of Trent Lane and parked on the flood bank. However, they must be parked so as not to obstruct the footpath and to allow other vehicles to drive past. Under no circumstances are vehicles to be driven upstream of the gate.

Night fishing is allowed on this venue
