I have heard there are some nice pike in here, I was fishing under the bridge next to the tram stop for meadowhall south but had no luck, possiblely the bad weather, any tips or other spots?

My advice would be to go up near the quays just after them (you cannot fish until after the second bridge). It is quite reeded up in parts so use strong line.
From that point all the way to the next four bridges you should catch.
I walked dog down last nite saw about ten jacks between 1lb and 3lb and about two decent sized one. I was gutted i didn't have my rod!

Non as far as I am aware fot That Section but you will need your fishing licence as there are sometimes water baliffs down there.
