Description:

Murphy's pond contains 43 pegs and has many nooks and crannies for fishing in. This pond is predominantly snake like in shape and there are three islands within the pond, two of which boast trees and a variety of marginal reeds. Subsequently; two of the islands can also be fished upon due to access via strong and sturdy bridges which are also compatible for disabled anglers.

Again, excellent specimens of fish can be caught from mirror and common carp (5lb upwards to mid 20lbs) F1 carp range from 1.5lb to 3.5lb. The pond also contains Bream, Roach, Tench, Ide, Rudd, Perch and Chub.

Murphy's pond has its own separate and spacious car park allowing access for disabled anglers and a public footpath can be found just outside the entrance to the pond, linking Wheldrake to Thorganby very handy for those anglers accompanied by friends/other half's who find fishing boring.

Woodside pond is the smaller of the two ponds and the first developed and contains 19 pegs. It is situated at the edge of a wood which provides much needed shelter against the elements. The pond has a natural shape to it and there is excellent growth of marginal reeds, lily pads and over hanging trees.

A fabulous array of specimen carp can be found in this pond such as; mirror and common carp (averaging weights 5lb upwards to mid 20lbs) however, some anglers have informed us that they have caught carp from upper 20lbs to low 30lbs. Other fish include Crucian carp. Roach, Tench, Ide, Bream, Rudd and Perch. Weights vary from 1lb upwards to a recently caught 3lb 9oz Perch.

The car park is situated next to the pond providing easy access to disabled anglers and only a couple of metres to the nearest peg. Both ponds have hard standing to all pegs and the surrounding walkways/paths.
