I saw two blokes fishing near the new bridge in donny on saturday !
So i rang the ea and they were more interested in my details than who or where they were fishing !!
After giving my details and home address and phone number they just said we will let one of our local ea officers know so they can check it out !! yer ok i thought thats the last anyone will hear of this !!
I certainly didn't get the impression they were going to do anything about it at all !!
Been...

I walk around there at least once a week and there is nearly always somebody fishing during the close season. I urge anybody who sees the same to report it.

Thanks

Had a good result on my first visit to the river with a barbel of 8lb 8 oz though I had to wait five hours until the tip finally pulled round.I did receive plenty of knocks or line bites perhaps due to unseen debris flowing through. I got the fish in some slow moving water that joined the faster flowing main river. The peg looked spot on for pike rather than barbel and I was regretting leaving the pike gear at home until I caught the fish. Bait was a small cube of garlic...

Johnny, Knock the caps lock off please.

Yes, there are barbel in that part of the Don. There are barbel all the way down from Oughtibridge to Donny and beyond.

There will be plenty of suitable water to fit your needs. However, that part of Sheffield / Rotherham is undergoing massive regeneration and as such access to the river changes all the time. You'll have to do some walking in the close...
