Ah I see above Allens ford hence the untouched trees vegetation. How is the river now since the poisoning a few years back? I suppose top end of river would be ok?Comment
-
Yeah top ends ok but there's plenty fish about all the way down, it's been stocked back up and has some nice fish in it now. Here's one I got a blackhall couple weeks ago about 1 to 1 1/2lb stocked fish though,
Thanks

River Derwent
Michael just quick question mate what set up do you use for the derwent? cheers DaveComment

Hello Dave I use a 9ft 5wt because that's all I have ATM, getting a 7ft 3wt soon though. 9ft is fine on certain stretches but there's plenty stretches where it's too long, also would depend on what you are fishing ie drys or nymphs as a longer rod is better for nymphing
Cheers
