Salfordcarl Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 Driving around locally and have spotted a lake off long lane, Nr pershore. I have had a look on google earth and no how to get to them. Does anyone know anything about them. I don't want to just mooch up there and get caught and ruin any chances of getting fishing permission. Any my help welcome. Quote
spr1985 Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 I’d take a mooch up and see if there is any info on the entrance/gate as a first port of call, providing you’re not trespassing to do so I can’t see any harm in it B.C. 1 Quote

Any my help welcome. apparently all the land in the quadrant between the airport, throckmoreton road and the landfill site belongs to wychavon district council and is a landfill site operated by severn waste services. a little look tells me that the lakes are part of a land reclamation scheme to provide wetland reserves for wildlife (this has been on the cards for a few years now) so armed with that bit of info i would approach the site manager with a bottle of Glenfiddich in me back pocket but be prepared to get run off. keep me updated Edited March 31, 2018 by cyborx to take the 'P' :wink: Quote

Salfordcarl Posted March 31, 2018 Author Report Posted March 31, 2018 I'm not sure there's any fish in there but it looks the part, island beaches etc. The he only thing for it is to pop in like you say. I'm looking for something like this. I'm quite new to carping, but can't stand busy day waters. Without slashing the cash on a syndicate I'm a bit lost for a good venue. Im considering joining the baa and starting a baiting campaign in a couple of spots on the river but not really sure this is a good idea. Permission on a private lake, I'm sure is everyone's dream and might be too hard for a newbie like me to get. Quote

Salfordcarl Posted April 7, 2018 Author Report Posted April 7, 2018 I've been and seen the manager. It's a no go, "due to the sites Heath and safety policies blah blah blah" Not interested at all. On wards and up wards. Quote
cloud9 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Posted April 7, 2018 Send a email to Mr fairbrass sounds like the type of lake they can help out .... Quote
