    94lb cat from Severn?

    Well done Neil , I hooked one on the tidal trent 2 years ago and after 20 minutes or so it cut me off on a gravel bar <edited by Andy Frances> I can't see the point in having an unprovoked stab at someone on this thread, it seems completely unnecessary. I've therefore removed the rest of this...

    Trent Barbel

    they probably pulled it as the only question from the dodgy picture was how wide it was , the answer was not very and it is no way a 20 , elsewhere guys who actually fish the stretch say 17 is biggest possible and to a man they reckon 14 maximum , sad but true the weeklies really are becoming a...

    Carlton-on-Trent

    its the derbyshire derwent stretches they own that pushes the price up , they also have a lake at Carlton but not sure how it fishes now , must admit I paid my money and only regularly fished the Trent and lake and the Derwent just a couple of times

    Carlton-on-Trent

    The stretch Cemex leased is now back with the Sheffield Waltonians , Spoke to a guy who is still a member and he confirmed they have it back , did shock me as I was a member about 25 years ago and you had to be vetted by the committee and if you got in it was £100 to join and then £200 for the...
