I was chatting to a chap just upstream of Gunthorpe bridge today and he said he had caught a trout.
Are there many trout in that stretch of the Trent? |

Don't know about that stretch but near wychnor, just up from my canal, lots of trout used to come out of the Trent.

There was one day in 1977 when the river flooded and all the commercial trout fisheries at the time were engulfed, were were catching them in the Trent right up to the close season.

The EA stock trout into the Trent above Stoke on Trent. A Trout farm at Stone regularly loses Trout into the Trent.

Last season I saw an angler catch a brownie and a grayling in the same session at Caythorpe which as you probably know is just downstream of Gunthorpe. I've also caught a nice rogue rainbow at Dunham and a brownie at Besthorpe so they do exist in the lower river system but there hardly prolific.
