Much of the lower Dove is in the hands of dead-mans-shoes clubs: Oakover, Birdsgrove, Norbury and Uttoxeter Fly Fishers. Relatively expensive and not easy to get in, and full of toffs
Some more affordable clubs have got small stretches. I think (?) Prince Albert have a stretch downstream of Mayfield, Derby Railway at Ellastone and Leek and District now have a stretch below Rocester.
Downstream of where the rain-fed Churnet joins the Dove the fishing changes in character, although the Derby Railway stretch has a good head of fish still.
