[Fachwen Pool Newtown, Powys. Advice?]

Fishing there in a couple of weeks, ive tried googling but there isnt much that i can find. Im looking for bait advice, how to fish it & what are the best pegs.

 

Anything would be helpful :0)

[Reedswood pool Walsall]

I've used the search function and the info is abit outdated.

 

Has anyone fished this place recently? Any advice on methods to use, decent pegs and good baits to use?

 

Is there anything decent in there these days? I'm making the short trip there with my uncle on Saturday.

When your next down, pop into Welshpool and I will show you a few places to get you started again. Message me when your down and I will let you know where I work so you can come in for a coffee.

 

I will take you up on that cheers! I think the site opens in another month but i'm unsure when i'll be down next due to work commitments etc etc.

 

Thanks look forward to the tea (don't like coffee)

Hello mate. Which caravan park?

 

You have Blackthorn at Oswestry, Merrington a bit further on near Baschurch. Spring Rock near Llandrindod Wells. A chap who used to work in our llandod branch owns that but I have never fished it.

Not sure what actual llandod lake is like now but has some real history

You could always get an intermediate membership at Wynnstay carp lake. It's the old lindersfarne college lake on the Watkins Williams Wynn estate.

At Whitchurch you have Blakemere leisure which I can highly recommend. Just don't nip out for a steak dinner!!!!

Near Gatten is quite close on one of the back roads to Shrewsbury near Rattlinghope. It's a nice small, peaceful lake where you won't even hear a car!

 

That should give you a bit of choice, all have websites to look at. Failing that, pop into total angling in Shrewsbury and they can put you on to a fair few other lakes that might suit. Places like Church Stretton and a new one that I can't for the life of me remember the name of.

 

The river Severn is always worth a bash. Right in your doorstep and some monster barbel have been had for being so far up the river!

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thank's alot mate, I'll give all these abit of a look through. Like i said only recently got back into the fishing scene so i can't wait to get back on the banks again.

 

Gwernydd Hall is the caravan park. My mom has been going down there with her folks since she was 4 and has loved it ever since. They have 2 pools on site that have just been stocked with small carp but i think i caught everyone last summer. Need bigggger

Hello to everyone reading.

 

I'm lucky enough that my folks own a caravan in Mid Wales (I must say it was a great up bringing getting away from my area and not having a care in the world growing up with friends of a weekend) in between the towns of Welshpool and Newtown. It will be open again soon.

 

These days however, i will be using it as a place to stay after weekend fishing trips, last summer I had a few trips to a day ticket lake called Fachwen Pool with my old man. We caught quiet a few fish, my dad preferring float fishing for the silvers. I've only recently got back into fishing and would like to venture father afield.

 

Anyone recommended lakes i could try for carp fishing? Day ticket or 24 hour session's because i dare say i'll be doing both.

hi saddler you will deff catch at coppice lane, however it is a typical commercial lots of fish with lips missing, i wrote to the owners about it, all they said was they couldnt police the pools all of the time, aint been back since

 

Bit of a silly question sorry but i'd still call myself a beginner. How would a fish lose a lip? Bad unhooking? Barbed hooks or?

Hey all

 

THanks for the replys been busy with xmas as you all probably have. I went to have a look at this place and i didn't really take a shine to it.

 

I'm going to try a fishery called Coppice Lane fishery which is abit farther but it looks in better nick

Coppice Lane, down near Burntwood?

 

Try the older lake, can't remember what it's called. I've had some good fish out of there and once got proper smashed up by something large, even though I was using 15lb line, straight through.

 

It's a very pleasant place and seldom gets mad busy.

Yes that's the one pal, it's around 10 miles from me.

 

Ive been fishing for under 6 months but i'm already eager to beat my PB of 8ish pound, i'm not sure whether im ready yet to handle fish into the doubles.

Hello, long time reader first time poster.

 

I uncovered this lake whilst searching for somewhere local during the winter months. Probably late jan/early feb now.

 

Does anyone have any information on the fishing here?

Ive done some googling but most the the stuff i found was abit dated.

Here's a link for some vague information, i really couldnt find anymore info than this.

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks
