River Trent
Stoke Bardolph Road Stretch (Ashfield AC)
The lowdown
- No day tickets above or below the Road Stretch, and don't fish past locked gates — the club says it prosecutes.
- The club's page doesn't list species, so we haven't guessed.
- No pike fishing 1 April–30 September; read the club's predator rules first.

Key rules
- Day tickets for the Road Stretch only.
- No pike fishing 1 April–30 September.
- Don't buy tickets for the closed season (15 March–15 June inclusive).
- Close and lock the gate at the top of the lane.
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.
