Description: This is an established fishery situated not too far from Junction 31 of the M1 at Brampton. It is in all fairness an out and out match fishery that has a very busy schedule but is also available for day ticket fishing. There is one lake on the venue, it is laid out in such a fashion as to allow the maximum number of people to fish, to achieve this there are three islands that run the length of the pond, fishing is aloud round the edge of the pond and also from both sides of the middle island, the vast majority of pegs have an island to fish to. As such the pole does feature very heavily here. To be fair you can often pick up fish right under your feet. There are marginal reeds which offer good cover for fish along with strategically placed shelves towards the middle and far banks. To reach the far bank of some of the swims would require a floating pole as it can be 20 metres in places. Most swims have an average depth of 6ft but some places are a little deeper or shallower than this.
