Mexborough

The stretch limits are 250 yards upstream and 250 yards downstream of the car park. There are some well made platforms on some of the pegs but other pegs are a little overgrown and will require a little effort with a bank stick.

I fished the 1st peg to the right of the footbridge and was pleasantly surprised. I had several quality Perch around the 1lb mark and some Dace and my friend had plenty of Dace on the float. The only draw back is that the car park isn't visible from the river and we were told by other anglers that the car park is sometimes used by drug users, apart from that its a very good fishery

Species

We have had no reports of catches yet so the fish are based on the owners knowledge.

Baits

Again its a new water so we're not sure what works
