Fiskerton (NPS)
Deep, navigable Trent near Newark and one of only two NPS stretches open to day-ticket anglers.
Run by Nottingham Piscatorial Society · checked 2 Oct 2026
The lowdown
- The society says its Fiskerton and Rolleston day-ticket waters hold specimen barbel, chub, pike and carp plus roach, perch and dace — that's said about both stretches together, not swim by swim.
- Expect boat traffic in summer; the society describes winter days as properly peaceful.
- The society says both access tracks at Fiskerton and Rolleston have been repaired.
Methods: The society reckons the swims suit everything from stick float to heavy feeder.

Fish the club names
barbel, chub, pike, carp, roach, perch, dace

Key rules

- Max 2 rods.
- No keepnets.

Coarse fishing on English rivers is closed from 15 March to 15 June inclusive. That's the law for coarse fish on rivers — it's not a club rule, and game-fishing seasons work differently.

Farndon gauge
Nearest EA gauge we've matched — it isn't on this stretch, so levels on your peg will differ.
