Below is a selection of captures we’ve been sent from our Belper sections of the Derbyshire Derwent – over the first few weeks of the 2020/21 season.
These include a couple of great nets of fish, a stonking river roach, specimen brown trout & grayling, lure caught pike, bream… even an ide! Showcasing just what a fantastic mixed fishery we’re blessed with here, on the Derwent:
If you’d like to send us details & photos of a specimen, bag of fish, or rare capture or sighting from our waters, please use our catch report page to send them to us.
The annual match, held on the River Derwent at Belper, was won by Thomas Webster.
Thomas Webster was triumphant in this year’s John Mason Memorial Match, held on our Wyver Lane Pond stretch of the River Derwent at Belper (just upstream of Belper’s River Gardens).
His superb 7lb 14oz bag of roach & dace, caught on pole, was enough to clinch the title and win him the John Mason memorial shield for 2017.
