The pools at Haslams hold alot of good carp, had a 15lb last weekend and have lost two bigger fish already this season. Only ever fish the first pond that you come to, which also holds some good tench and bream and loads of small fish. For barbel, Darley Abbey by the weir used to be good but struggled myself there last year and the dog walkers, kids etc are a nightmare. Get yourself down to Borrowash - you can park in the E of H car park if you get a key, which you can get of the Secretary - would recommend getting one as cuts down the walk at Haslams pools. There have been some excellent barbel caught at Borrowash in the last year, up to 14lb, although not been amongst them myself I'm afraid! If you want any more info just let me know!

Have only ever fished the second pond once and didn't get into anything but that means nothing and have been told that there are some good tench in there. Haven't ever fished the river up by the ponds for barbel - its got a nice glide to it but haven't ever heard of any barbel being caught from that section.

Derby and downstream there are plenty of the old wiskers though (they seem to do a good hiding job from me though). Smurf

Posts: 1669 (19/05/08 20:33) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	There have been a lot of barbel caught at the Whatstandwell weir (I used to live about 2 miles from there). It is not the most reliable of areas though. There are plenty of barbel all the way up to Chatsworth but , as said, it is all mostly trout fishing water.....I am/ have been a member of some of the trout fishing clubs and have seen a lot of barbel which are never fished for but access for a non member is impossible. You nearest area for reliable fishing would be downstream from Belper, especially in the Duffield / Milford area.....quite a few fish and some are quite big. It is controlled mostly by Belper AC and Derby angling federation.....try the tackle shop in Belper for details. There are day tickets available for the matlock stretch but you would need local knowledge or a lot of luck to catch one. Cahal Last Edited By: morston 19/05/08 20:39. Edited 2 times.

The problem with the fish in the higher reaches is that they are never fished for so may not even recognise bait.....they also tend to be fairly tightly localised. If you have legal access then why not give it a go?....you will probably catch plenty of chub and trout if nothing else......and Grayling if you fish smaller hooks. Cahal
