The fishing is for Camp Site and Cottage guests, we also allow a few Day Tickets to the General Public (please ring us on 07989 819478 if you fancy a days fishing). The lakes have a good head of really lovely healthy fish, including Tench, Bream, skimmers, Carp, Roach, Rudd & Gudgeon. You will have to use all your cunning to catch the bigger fish as they're sneaky buggers, chances are you'll see them cruising & splashing around but catching them's a whole different ball game.
Maggot is defo the best bait to use here especially if fished in the margins over a bed of 2 mm pellet, the trick for 2021 seemed to be regularly ground baiting up.
If you do happen to get lucky and catch a nice fish, be it a Roach, Tench, Bream, Carp etc, please take a picture and send it to us so we can add it to our website gallery, it'd be nice to have you in the shot with the fish if at all possible. scroll down to see pictures
