Great sport on the float, on the club’s stretch of River Derwent

- 1st – Tony Carline = 1lb 2oz
- 2nd – Gary Wingfield = 6oz
- 3rd – Adam Ingram = 4oz
- 4th – Martin Jacques = 2oz
£40 was raised from todays match which is being donated to The Salvation Army.

Salmon caught from Belper in 2017 – UPDATE
from Belper & District Angling Club https://ift.tt/36cbFTM
SALMON caught from Belper!
Although we reported this capture over 18 months ago, we have only recently received full details and photo of the fish from the captor.
We can now confirm that a wild cock salmon was caught from the River Derwent at Belper in late 2017. One of the first first caught on rod & line in Derbyshire for over a Century! 😲
We’re lucky and honoured (not quite as much as the captor 😄) for this very special fish to have been caught from club waters.
