• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. There is a car park half a mile from the bank. This sits inside Enschede Estates, so read the reserve notices first. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. If the gate is shut, Bailey Reservoir at 1.6 miles is the nearest alternative. Treat access at Teufel Reservoir as something to verify.
