Saw that. But not yet allocated as sold.
Always a chance. It's a superb stretch

 

[Ben Marr]

Any clubs with deep enough pockets to buy it ?

 

[David Clewer]

No reason why a club couldn’t secure a mortgage/loan to buy it, provided that their finances are in good order.

Wouldn't it be nice to buy it amongst us members.... Albeit it I could see potential conflicts too

I'd be up for it with the right people and understanding I've always loved the Wye.

Another bit of river was sold into 12 parts.
Less than 1/3 of this sizewise. In 3 years the units have increased 50pc on resale

Just saying.

How much would we be looking G for a stretch like that ?

It says circa 100k Derek. I would say that's an excellent double bank piece.

If I was 20 years younger.........

If only stretches of the Hampshire Avon or Dorset Stour were that cheap Graham.

Ha.
I'm guessing more open country, cheaper housing, less traffic( Goodness how I hate the Bournmouth /Ringwood Jams and cameras) Less competition from other anglers, eg top Longford and Winkton, smaller Barbel, smaller Roach, smaller Chub, smaller Grayling.

If the size of the fish and the numbers fishing are a factor in the value of river stretches, those on the Trent must be worth millions….

Well, income on the stretch is around 4k pa. If that was increased by promotion to 8k you'll be getting a fair ROI compared with the market.

The difference is also affected by available fishing water. Trent and Wye are pretty big with lots of access available, as not so much syndicated and lots of available club access.

I'm sure the old Wye Salmon stretches would have been a lot lot more than now


Club wise Throop HAvon two major ones really.
