hodgey_106 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi all, I live in the north east but work in birmingham. I am looking for somewhere near to Birmingham to spend the weekends fishing. Must be able to night fish. Any suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leggs007 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 barston lakes but check if they have a match on first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carefulcarping Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 barston lakes but check if they have a match on first Agreed, if you want a few runs then this is the place to go. I fished there at the back end of last year and had 18 carp in 24 hours. Here is a video i made whilst fishing the place with nearly all the carp on camera... Ross.

welder Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hodgey, welcome to the forum, mate. Don't know how near to Brum you want to fish and if Ashby de la Zouche isn't too far (12 miles, ish) then give Willesley Lake a look. It's a pretty place and holds some decent fish. You'll find it on www.Fisheries.co.uk as Carl (Beza) has suggested, above. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carefulcarping Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 how much to fish at barston lakes please and what are the best pegs would i be right in saying between 60 -80 Think it's 15 quid a night but google it and it will tell you, also have to buy a night permit which covers you for a year which is only a tenna. I fished peg 91 and had 18 carp out. But most pegs fish well there I guess. I'm in for buying willesley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welder Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 I'd be in. There's a fishery for sale nearish to you, Neil. Includes a stretch of the Trent, too. Take a look in Fisheries for Sale on www.fisheries.co.uk It's the one in north Staffs, near Rugeley. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobleyn Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 You're right Ian...it's only about 2 miles from me. Funnily enough I used to fish it in the nineties. I might have a mooch around it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash_gadgeteer Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Our team just got back from Barston Lake, and had a right result.. Top peg was 125 taking over 1300lbs of fish in 48hrs, and i was in pegs 55 & 54 with my fishing partner and had 481lbs so get down there and catch a few yourself, PM me for details if required..
