| Description: This vast water is approx one mile East of Chorley, below Winter Hill, in the West Pennine Moors, Lancashire and is a vast water of circa 57 acres part of which is a nature reserve.
Upper Rivington Reservoir holds large shoals of Bream, Roach, Perch, Chub, Rudd and Pike - there are limited day tickets available (10 only) from Crown Tackle and Bait (5) and Coppull Anglers (5) This fishing water can be a daunting water for anglers at most times of the year especially winter when its a large open and often windswept fishing venue with little if any clues to where the fish may be holed up. Here local knowledge is the key to catching the elusive but many and large fish of Upper Rivington Reservoir. |
