About This Fishery

A small two-lake day-ticket fishery tucked into the countryside just outside Pontefract, offering match-style pleasure fishing on two stocked ponds. The small lake is particularly popular for waggler and pole fishing, while the larger lake attracts more experienced anglers after the double-figure carp. Groundbait is banned; particles, pellets and corn are the preferred approach.
