Why venture afar when you have the Don virtually lapping the walls of your moat? It is stuffed with fish of all kinds from common bream to noble trout. And there is no charge to fish.

His Lordship has country dwellings in the next county.

I take it you mean dwellings as in 'let cottages', and he is travelling down to Derbyshire to collect rents from common tenants then planning on spending the income of a worthwhile pursuit? All is clear now. I am afraid I cannot hel his Lordship in this matter any further. I simply nip down to the Trebor Bassets stretch and fill my boots with dee-dar trout.

not sure of whats what these days ,but a mile or three above ambergate is whatstandswell bridge ,next too the bridge is a hotel ,they still do day tickets ,from belper to cromford is mostly controled by the ripley & district club ticket .belper tackle & gun shop (if its still there ,on the A6 main road next too a cake shop ,umm kills two birds with one stone ,fishing and cakes ) will know more .but here is ripley & districts details
used to fish around there a lot 10 years ago for the chub ,but not much since then ,also near whatstandswell theres some private stretches owned /run by campsites and a bit further up the A6 theres matlock bath which is day ticketed .
other clubs like derby county ac has some of the stretches around belper

Belper district angling club. Day tickets 4 pounds goes from belper weir down to Milford weir behind the pub, I'm a member for 30 pounds a season and that entitles you to fish the pond on wyver lane and the river above the weir up to ambergate railway bridge.

Not Belper or Ambergate but not a million miles away either is the stretch down river of Matlock Bath between there and the mill, day tickets a fiver from the newsagent opposite the museum and fish pond.
