Where to fish

This short length (25 pegs) of upper Trent is noted for it’s Winter Roach fishing with pleasure catches exceeding 20lbs. Chub, Bream & the occasional Barbel are also to be caught. Generally shallow, the river here can become heavily weeded in Summer making fishing difficult.

Handsacre: from Alrewas take A513 through Kings Bromley towards Handsacre. Turn right onto B5014 then through gate just before bridge crosses the river. Cars may be parked anywhere along the track up to the double gates.
No vehicles past these gates. Do not obstruct access track or gate.
BAA fishing extends upstream from the new road bridge for 700 yards.Beware overhead powerlines
