the boating lake is a good spot if you are looking for some decent size carp,theres a small charge for using the lake but well worth it as its always kept so well stocked

Mmmmm Good of you to put the sign on. I quite often walk Boating Lake early in the mornings and have to say there are still a lot of irresponsible fishermen about. O.K, Before I start getting nasty emails, I am only talking about those who DO still leave ' barbed hooks, lead weights, fishing line etc, around. I often pick said items up, when down there

yeah there r some big fish down pebble but they r really hard to catch since people go down there throwing stones in which scares them. when i was down there sat morning i was planning on going fishing but then i realised my parents had thrown my rod out and all.

if u wanna fish legal u must use worm or fly since cource fishing bate is illegal on the river, but on the other hand to fish the river u must hav a rod license and river license other wise u r liable for a court case against u. Thats y i normally take a rubbish rod.
