• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. No slipway, car park or made path shows up nearby in mapping, so treat access as rough. A wire trace and a big bright lure handle the pike; deep water asks for a heavier spoon. Check whether a boat is allowed before you tow one. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Cates Pond at 1.9 miles is the sensible second choice. Check the current arrangement for Krelldire Pond.
