13/4/15 - The Earl would like to announce the new stocking to Mill Dam Canal. The canal is in need of a lot of work but it is fishable on the first peg and also beyond the second gate to the very end. There are some real gems to be caught such as Crucians to 2lbs, Rudd and Roach to 1lbs, Skimmers and Bream to 4lbs plus Perch, Hybrids, Pike and the odd Carp. We have stocked quality stamp Rudd and specimen Crucians and plan to continue work to the canal including pegs, path and water maintenance. Fishing the float or pole seems to be the better methods as the bottom is very silty due to years of neglect.
UPDATE MILL DAM PARKING - the car park is now re-open to Season Ticket Members (gate key) - access off Markeaton Street - 20/2/17
