grahamch Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 A change of tack given the lack of spring fishing locally.Am starting to plan a short fishing break in Derbyshire and trying to find out what water is available on a day ticket or for a couple or 3 days.Not sure if I want accommodation attached to the fishing but any hotels etc. with fishing would be useful.TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen-H Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) http://www.ladybowerfisheries.co.uk Or if you want a more quieter scenic part of Derbyshire search chee dale / monsal dale fly fishing I believe it could be a club water but they might do day tickets etc it is a truly stunning stretch of water on a sunny day & I've seen good numbers of trout rising there while out walking the dog.

Smokersmith Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 The Wild Trout Trust runs an annual auction and there are many suitable lots that you could go for. Several of them include the opportunity to get a point in the right direction from either the donor, or club member, and that can make the difference on new water. I'd be looking for the ones with native Rainbows on the Derbyshire Wye. The Spring Auction | Wild Trout Trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 As above. Some great days on offer. Should be coming up soon. You don't indicate fly or course which could be helpful. Carsington for fly is also an excellent lake fishing location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) The Peacock Hotel at Rowsley used to have and still has its own waters. And for sightseeing is close to Chatsworth House. You might try them? I could think of nothing so nice. My late father used to stay there and fish in the time when George Brown was MP for Belper. And to that generation in the Peak District Foster's was still a fly rod and tackle shop in Ashbourne and not a cheap Australian lager brewed God knows where except "down under". https://thepeacockatrowsley.com/fishing https://archive.org/details/retailcatalogueo00fostrich/page/98/mode/2up Edited February 25, 2022 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hushpower Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Ladybower for still water all the way, plenty of chalk streams near as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyshooter Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 As Smokersmith says, The Wild Trout Trust 2022 Auction goes live on their website on 1st March 2022. I've had a look at a " provisional" auction catalogue and you will certainly find it interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker570 Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Just had the Wild Trout Trust Annual Auction of fishing days etc and there are a few offered up in that area worth looking at. Go on line, Wild Trout Trust Auction should find it. I have been lucky to fish one or two of those offered and they are lovely bits of water.

Jonty Posted March 10, 2022 Report Share Posted March 10, 2022 As per Kevin55 - take a look at the passport program. I've used them in other areas but not the Peak District - you buy a book of tokens and then there is an honesty box at each beat/river, if a beat is 3 tokens you fill your details in, put them in the box and start fishing. It's a great system. http://www.peakanglingpassport.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamch Posted June 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Yep, had a few days at the Izaak Walton hotel, nice water but weather cold and didnt see much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokersmith Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 I tried one of the Peaks Pass beats when coming back from a business meeting in Liverpool. TBH, it was pretty muddy and I reckon I caught the only few in there!! Broke the journey up a treat though, and took me through some great scenery I’d have missed if going the main routes.
