david1982 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 hello, i'm hoping some of you can help.i live in kings lynn and i've been fishing on and off for a while. i'm hoping to get a bit more serious and start catching some 20lb + fish. over the last few years i've gone to places in the area like taswood, bluebell etc with very little success so i think my best course of action is to join a water next year (i'd considered bradmoor but have heard bad things) so i can get to know it. i'd be grateful for people opinions on where they think would best? i'd like somewhere quite close so i can do over-nighters regularly,will mostly fish with mates so double swims etc would be great, and most importatntly want to start catching good size fish. any general views and tel numbers and prices would be gratefully received, cheers!

Guest Anonymous Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 You could try here while you're looking mate, I found Heartsmere easy with one in three fish being 20 plus http://www.waveneyvalleylakes.com/fishing_information.php Quote
david1982 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Posted December 30, 2010 spot on, cheers hammer, the guy that works in my local tackle shop raves about this place, its one of the few i've never even visited, sounds like its worth a look Quote
zammmo Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 A lovely venue no doubt,but caravanners get first dibs... Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 It is mate, well run, no silly rules, good shop just up the track from Heartsmere along with good clean showers. If you fish it we found corn and hemp tight to the overhanging trees opposite and placcy corn on the hook caught us the majority. Quote

zammmo Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 Unfortunatly never been but would love to...When my Mrs used to acompany me fishing we stayed at quite a few places but never got round to Waveney Valley... Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 Lovely place mate, never seen so many owls round one lake and it's tucked away at the end of a track Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 Is this any use? https://forum.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=46858 Quote
david1982 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Posted December 30, 2010 excellent, cheers. i've done a few of them on 72hr sessions, taverham, taswood and done ok. what i really want is somewhere i can buy a years ticket for that is within about 30mins drive of kings lynn (pe30), picky i know! that way when the days are longer i'd like to be able to have night sessions down there and get back for work the next day in the week as well as longer sessions Quote
blythy Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 im looking for the exact same thing! so far i have found either bradmoor or nar valley. valley is £150 for the year,but there is alot of water to go at! other than that i keep drawing blanks really,but dont elive everything you have heard about bradmoor,i think alot of it is to try and scare people off Quote
pearbo Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 The valley gets stupidly weedy to the point of unfishable in the summer. Bradmoor is my bet, had a ticket for both this year and haven't even been through the gate to the valley due to enjoying bradmoor so much. Take a bat you'll be ok Quote
blythy Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 a good friend of mine is a baliff on braddy so i will be giving him a bell,if theres any truth behind the rumours he should know! other place i can get on is blackbourgh end,i have never fishied it as a carp angler,the bream fishing used to be good when it was on klac book,but the carp fishing has always been known to be rock hard!

pearbo Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 The father in law is a baliff and they keep a tight ship. There is very little litter and the swims are tidy. Bearing in mind it is only a club water so is not rearly run on a profit at all costs scenario, it is very respectable Quote
