Description: The Gold Valley complex was developed from the start for anglers, allowing not only experienced fishermen but also beginners to have a memorable day. Our original stocks were unfished and most obtained from game waters and private estate lakes, these natural fish have spawned over the years producing thousands of fish special to Gold Valley, when needed and correctly sourced additional fish have been stocked along the way to make the fishery as good today as ever.

Since opening, the fishery has established itself as a venue for many of the top match fishing series and qualifiers with the who's who of the fshing world having wet a line at Gold. Whether you fish a match hoping to catch 200lb or you are going for your personal best specimen fish, Gold Valley is the venue for you.

Now has 58 purpose built platforms all a very large size some being double family swims. The lake is six acres with three islands and depths vary between 3 - 8ft. Large stocks of carp both mirrors and commons up to 30 plus lb, with tench, bream, crucians, roach, rudd and some very big perch all regularly caught.

All methods will produce good weights of fish with boilies fished over pellet or zig type rigs accounting for many of the specimen carp. The method feeder and pellet waggler are winning match tactics and good bags of mixed fish being caught on the pole.
