Probably my favourite stretch of the Don..


A video taken during a couple of hours fishing with my brother. Hot weather, but lots of fish!

I have yet to explore the upper don, but understand that some/all of it above oughtibridge is private fishing. Wouldn't mind trying the very headwaters - not sure if they are private or not but will ask around.
If anyone does know the upper limits of the UDFF waters please email me!

  2. Great blog,
    Was looking for some info on the Don so I can try for some grayling while my Mrs shops at MeadoHell tomorrow.
    Glad to see you like the passport beats, although they can be excruciatingly frustrating.!

  4. Great blog! Emailed a while ago to ask if you're interested in contributing or even feature in a sport fishing magazine about urban trout fishing in Sheffield. Would be most glad if you could consider. Thanks.
