River Swop

[Graham Elliott]

Whilst I know that often Anglers meet up on here and arrange trips to various different rivers that might be new to them.

It might be useful to use this thread to see if YOU might want to take part in exchanging experiences.

I have always wanted to barbel fish the Nene.

So.
Anybody want to share 2 days with tickets on the Wye (or Warks Avon) for
The same on the Nene?
Not major issue but accomodation could be included if both ways.



Feel free to add your ideal "Swop" on this post.

Hi Graham,
What a cracking idea.
Not sure who would be prepared to visit the Yorkshire Derwent as my half of the swap. It's a beautiful river, but the fishing can be b---dy hard.
I love fishing it, but blanks are very much the norm.

If you are interested in the Nene send me an email to jonfnewman@aol.com

The day ticket stretches are now producing larger fish that the syndicated areas.

There are some cracking barbel on the Nene it did one of 17lb the week before the season ended along with a 13-3. 14-2 & 9+ to the same angler see angling times April 2nd issue.
Tactics are keep light keep on the move it's best suited to roving so leave your big river set ups at home.
Don't hoof bait in it's not needed.
Not an easy river to fish at times you have to get to know it first but some cracking barbel and we'll bailiffed and looked after sections.
Be aware there is NO NIGHT FISHING and the bailiffs do patrol at night.
