Catch Results
I aim to keep this page updated with catches as the season progresses. Please Send Mail about your catches and any photos and I will include them here and in the Gallery. I also report to the Trout and Salmon magazine for the Nevern and will include notable catches with your name if requested.

Historical catch figures
I have managed to obtain some historical catch return figures for the Nevern. The river was only lightly fished back in the 70’s, with very patchy and unreliable catch returns also submitted by Anglers. The river was also heavily poached back then! Thanks to Dave Mee from NRW for the data.
