Fishing Doxey Marshes

[Roland]

I have been looking at getting a permit to fish Doxey Marshes, does anyone have any up to date info on how it is fishing?

I am also interested in Baswich Pool and the River Sow fishery, has anyone fished it?

Are there any other places local to fish that can be recommended?

One spot to fish - licence - no overnight - Boundary Flash- carp + pike

The river Sow, I've caught perch, dace, gudgeon, pike, crayfish, mind you that
was 50 odd years ago, and the pike from by the gasworks pipe was delicious.

I've heard rumours of barbell being caught in the river.

I think I will get a permit, it's only £15.00, and just work my round the pools and try them all out.

If there are any other forumites who fish we could have a forum fishing day out with BBQ of course!

@seanyboo was very keen, but he hasn't been on for a couple of years.

Just spent the day fishing Baden Hall and caught some nice carp but the place is full of crayfish!

Caught two and had to bring them home with me so if anyone fancies a couple of crayfish to cook let me know.

Why couldn't you chuck 'em back? Or is that a really stupid question? x

American or European?

Red, white and blue, I'd imagine.

These are American Crayfish which are a non-native invasive species which kill our native Crayfish. Big fines for returning them alive!

Thank you sweetie, now! How do you tell them apart?

The Americans drop their kecks even just for a wee

The Europeans don't wash their hands after a wee

That about sums up what our post-brexshit trade deal with them will be like.

The American Crayfish are twice as big and the underside of the claws are red, chances of catching a native crayfish is slim but if you kill one there are big penalties so it's a difficult situation!

We need to keep these uninvited guests out. Perhaps we could wall Doxey in and turn it into a state park?
