Fishery under new ownership

Thursday 28th July 2016

The Fishery changed hands at the end of June with Seb Parker & Angela Tadd becoming the new owners.


Mallard and Willow lakes are open as usual with great sport for all the family; carp to 10lb, Crucians to 1lb 10oz and Roach / Rudd to over a 1lb being caught regularly throughout July.


Unfortunately Kingfisher lake & Farmyard pond are no longer available for fishing.


Work has begun clearing a stock pond in the third field to help in the managment of the fisheries stocks, netting of the lakes will happen during the winter to provide great fishing for 2017. 


A longer term plan is to dig a third lake in this field, watch this space!

Happy Father's Day....  


Lovely to see father and son fishing together at Willow Lake today.  The sun is shining, fishing is great and I am sure they will have lots of catches.
