I'm sure you can float fish for trout at Matlock (Matlock Bath)on the Derwent

 

You can park in the Gullivers Kingdom Car Park (have to pay), cross the road walk down side of Hotel, cross bridge and fish anywhere to left or right of bridge.

Do bear in mind that brown trout are now out of season in the UK - so it's illegal to intentionally fish for them and illegal to take them home with you.

 

Stocked rainbows are a different matter, but I think you're probably out of luck on almost all rivers until next season (March)

 

Cheers,

I used to fish with worm many moons ago, this was allowed out of season (and i mean many moons ago)

 

Come to think of it i think you're right i could only ledger with worm.

 

Sorry for the duff information.

just put a hunk of bread on ,a sure trout attractor ,use the method infront of fluff chuckers on the other bank ,sure starts a conversation

[Adz]

Of course, depending on the fluff chuckers, it can also start a gun fight... best avoided unless it's a legal technique ;-)

On the other hand if the 'fluff chuckers' decide to then wade through your carefully laid bed of hemp or groundbait you'll have nothing to complain about will you?
