The Angling Times used the section for the final of their Winter League, it was also used to stage the European Championships. Over the years the Embankment section of river has been used for some high profile matches. Fishing on the opposite side of Trent Bridge is possible, but parking looks a pain and there are rowing clubs – so could be a bit of a ball ache. Depending on where you park or where you want to fish will dictate the distance of the walk. Parking is ok, you have to pay a small charge (few pounds) during the daytime on the north side, there is a small road of free parking on the opposite side near Welbeck Hall. You can park very close to the river in a lot of places. The choice is yours, you just can’t use any bank sticks! Going old school with a bait smock is also an option.

Enough of the sight-seeing though, let’s get onto the fishing.Īround Trent Bridge you can fish on both sides of the river. Depending on where you head, you should be able to see the Forest ground, Trent Bridge, County Hall, the suspension bridge and the war memorial.
The River Trent Embankment, or “The Steps” as they are referred to locally are a fairly iconic place to spend some time fishing.
