lurchy123 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Just wondered if anybody had any info on the pool I'm told fishing is not allowed but iv seen it fished and heard of carp in there.. I know there's a fair few pike for sure and I know it's deep as divers train there[/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemsue5 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Its about 40ft deep and a trecharous place to fish unless you fish where the divers go in and out and even then you have the big snag to the right to worry about. I know its fished but the owner is a bit of a nutter who aint keen on anglers umless he knows you. I have seen carp in there but i would say there is no more than a handfull at most with the best being around 20lb. Three winters back me and my lad found two dead dragged up the bank which look like they had been ottered. To be honest mate it would be a ball ache to try and catch one out of there its a proper snag fest and as i say a dangerous place to fish on your own. Far better waters around with a lot less hassle.

lurchy123 Posted October 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 I hear what ya sayin!!.. It would be hard to fish for carp.. I think I may just stick to the pike spinning on there as it does seem to be full of um!!..I believe it was a quarry to start with but I have been told at some point in the 70's it was stocked with trout to try and bring in the money but didn't take off so was left to get in the state it is now..

jemsue5 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Thats crap ive fished it since the 70s never seen a trout in there. Can you imagine casting a fly rod on those banks. It did get run by TAA many years a go and we had some superb Roach, Rudd and Perch fishing there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
