Wiktor, I've only been to collinghamonce and am just as likely to get lost as you. Looks to me like you need to enable your messaging as i've no "message member" icon showing at the bottom of your messages.

 

[Wiktor z Polski/Dr. Wodka]

Thanks Paul B.

You were right about the messaging icon,my fault.

I was start getting paranoid about my roots,you know the stuff you read in angling times etc about poles. Some just go little bit too far with accusations.

I cant wait to do some barbel fishing and see the experts,I`m just worried that I end up in wrong Collingham and miss the event or spend more time driving then fishing,mind you I`m in 2 minds if i can make my way there on Friday evening and be ready for sat am. I booked time of from my missus and kids,she knows that I am mad about fishing .

There is not many places to fish for barbel up my sticks so I`m very exited on the prospect of catching one or two.

Is it the collingham north of newark-on-trent? Between mansfield and lincoln?

Can Lee or somebody send me some directions please.

Wiktor

 

[Paul H]

That's the right one Wiktor.

To get to the pegs where you can park right behind them follow Carlton Ferry Lane on this map.

Turn off toward the river here but make sure you close the gates behind you.

You can also parkhere which is nearer to the weir if you prefer.

 

[Geoff Cowen]

Wiktor, Pegs 1 to 25 are above (up-stream) the third map link from Paul. I will be there from Friday lunch time on.

 

[Lee Swords]

Just returned from the Trent and it is fishing very well!

I was doing some shooting with Bob Roberts and Stuart Walker and had a LOT of good sized barbel (no doubles) and some truly exceptional chub with fish going to very close to 5lb ( Bob had one at 5lb 40z)

Pellet was order of the day!

 

[Wiktor z Polski/Dr. Wodka]

Thanks chaps I shall see you there,great help/forum/smilies/smile_smiley.gif

 

[Paul B]
