sammorley1 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Hi guys, just getting back in to carp fishing, when i started i fished syndicates like Wentworth lakes and mostly went night fishing to places like sapphire, i never actually did Day sessions so to speak, I know theres stubbs hall but its an absolute dive and i wouldn't be seen dead there lol, So basically can anyone recommend any decent carp water within an hours drive to rotherham, Day ticket lakes, Not pole bashing lakes, rods reels and alarms lakes lol. Ive searched and checked the forums and best i can seem to find is alderfen lakes near doncaster but its very weedy and my friend is kind of Newbie and want him to at least get 1 run, i don't mind blanking tho lol. thanks sam Quote
daveski87 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 Im in the same boat - its bad up here for fishing! Try: Lakeside fishery - Ranskill Not the best pegs mid, infact some of the worst ive ever seen! lol try getting you bivvy pegs into hardcore! Hardwick Hall Lakes Quote
chris71 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 A1 pits, plenty to choose from...Higham Farm Nr Chesterfield 4 lakes should both be good for a run... Quote
jamieh90 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 What about Sally walshes? Ie Hoyle mill at back of hemsworth water park. Contains some good fish up to and over 30, big cat fish and general corse fish. It was home of the famous Sally 40lb mirror! It's framed in the Barnsley bait co shop in maplewell. Haha Stubbs hall! Your very true, John has lost the plot I think, last time I was there some idiots were jumping in! Rods in and left! Quote

jamieh90 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 I'm not sure about the swan but my mate had a 18lb 9oz mirror out last Saturday, did two nights had about 150lb out. The average size was about 6-10lb. Was rather suprised! Quote
