A series of four lakes with excellent parking and access. Most anglers
Are attracted to the ponds by the prospect of the very good Roach and
Skimmer fishing on offer. Large nets of Skimmers to 2lb are quite
commonplace when using pellet, paste or small pieces of luncheon meat.
Carp well in excess of 10lbs are also present along with Tench, Perch
And the odd Chub. Ground baiting is allowed only in moderation. No1 Pond sometimes suffers from low water levels, this may from time to time require a keepnet ban to be imposed. Please observe all notices.
