The lowdown
- This is a proper River Trent bank stretch in the Stenson and Willington area, run by Burton Mutual Angling Association.
- The official BMAA page places it opposite Frizzams Lane and says the access point is signposted Stenson. Nice and clear, so less faff finding the spot.
- Access is from the hard standing on the wide grass verge opposite Frizzams Lane. BMAA says it has been used for many years.
- The stretch forms part of BMAA’s wider Willington, Twyford and Barrow River Trent waters. Your membership covers access to BMAA River Trent stretches.
- There’s no stated length or peg count for this point, so treat it as an informal bank stretch rather than a numbered-peg venue.
- The checked details don’t name any species specifically for Frizzams Lane. No sensible fish list to pad this out with, then.
- The facts don’t set out specific swims, depths, flow features or seasonal tactics here. So bring your usual Trent approach and judge the water on the day.
- Night-fishing details aren’t confirmed for this exact point. Where BMAA allows it on river sections, only an open-fronted brolly is permitted; enclosed shelters and bivvies are banned.
- There’s no access during the river close season, and anglers aren’t allowed to walk the river banks then. Dogs are also prohibited on all BMAA river sections.
- Anyone aged 12 or under must be with a responsible adult aged 18 or over. A current Environment Agency rod licence is required on club waters.
Methods: The checked details don’t specify methods for this stretch, so there’s no confirmed call on trotting, feeder or other tackle. Pick your approach from the river on the day.
