Description: Welcome! Please browse the site where you will find information about all the pools and don't forget to keep checking the News page where we update catch reports and keep you informed of forthcoming matches and events, which you will also find on our Calendar page. The Lodge Cafe also welcomes ramblers, considerate dog walkers and cyclists as well as the general public who fancy dropping in for a cuppa and bacon sarney! Set in 32 acres, Fisherwick Lakes themselves offers day-ticket coarse and game fishing on a total of seven lakes and pools which for the most part were originally gravel workings and which now offer a wide variety of sport from large open waters to small, reed-lined and lily clad pools. Work has recently been completed on the laying of hard stone paths from the car park at the new lodge all the way around the lakes, making the banksides easily accessible in all weathers. Anglers must book in and park by lodge before dropping any tackle to pegs. Further instructions on parking will be given when anglers have booked in.
