The lowdown

  • This is a proper bookable Trent setup rather than a free-roaming bit of bank. The operator runs it as a private fishery at Maltkiln Lane, Newark.
  • The listed stretch is described as having 8 pegs, although the operator’s own page says it has 20 rental pegs. Best bet is to check what’s available when booking.
  • Sessions are nicely straightforward. Day fishing runs 7am to 7pm, night fishing 7pm to 7am, and a full 24-hour session runs 7am to 7am.
  • It’s general coarse fishing, so expect a classic Trent-style session rather than a named-species venue. The operator doesn’t publish a species list, bait details or a full tackle rundown.
  • The river is near Nether Lock, which gives the stretch a proper working-river feel. Think moving water, changing pace and finding the crease rather than sitting over a tiny puddle.
  • Match fishing is available as well, so there’s scope for a more competitive day if that’s your bag. Otherwise, settle in and work the swim with feeder or float tactics suited to the flow.
  • Pods are part of the offer, with single and double Bank-M8 options marketed as fishing-and-glamping. A cheeky weekend setup if you fancy making a proper trip of it.
  • Parking is provided next to the rented peg, with toilets and fresh water available. That cuts out a fair bit of faff, especially for longer sessions or anyone bringing plenty of kit.
  • It’s open seven days a week. Under-18s must be accompanied by an adult at all times, and the operator states one peg per person only.

Methods: General coarse fishing is available, with match fishing too. On a moving Trent stretch, feeder work or controlled trotting are the obvious starting points, adjusting to the flow and whatever depth the swim offers.
