The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. This water runs to that rhythm year in and year out. Settled weather over several days beats a single fine one.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. For the catfish, fish bottom baits into the deeper holes and let them sit. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. The nearest alternative is C M Luburgh Estate Pond Number 9717, 0.3 miles out. Rules at this water are worth checking on the day.
