Nottinghamshire offers some really fantastic places to go fishing. Many anglers will immediately associate Nottingham with the mighty River Trent, a river which over the past few years seems to have returned to its place among the top rivers in the country. In Nottingham there is a very wide range of choices, pick from miles of river bank, towpaths, estate lakes, ponds and a huge array of commercial fisheries. If that doesn’t tickle your fancy then there is equally as much choice in Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire.
