That's a shame, I always enjoy waters that have features and points of interest. Just makes the whole experience a little nicer 

There us a sunken island what the sticks are on but hardto find...only features ate the margain reeds and the horrendous drop off slope about 3ft from bank

That's disappointing to hear, fisheries should look natural and 'grown in' in my opinion.

How did the day finish up? Any more?

Its an ok place but while i was there i spoke to a few other anglers and since the Sturgeon have been taken out not many fish now...no one has heard of a carp in there over 16lb...

Was only the 3 Bream and 2 Carp...ive tried the place but dont think i will be back...

I'll stick to Fan Lodge and my 24hr Fishing lake (Mere Lane)

There are some bigger carp in there 20lb plus I haven't seen them caught but they are definitely in there, I went for walk around there last year when they were spawning and they are definitely in there. 👍👍

in this part of the UK kids are usually free or a couple of quid

A couple of quid.... 3 quid..... I don't think an extra 100 pennies makes mush of a difference.

I am not trying to disagree or anything buddy but I think any business charging 3 quid a day for kids and/or adults doesn't deserves to be called rip-off merchants. In this day and age 3 quid for a day out is pretty good if you ask me.

Fair point but if I was taking myself and three kids fishing for the day 24 quid plus bait It isn't that cheap, but if it was 2 quid per child it does make difference to a lot of people. 👍

Or free like Highy said even more differance. 👍

Hi

Just to let everyone know who has fished in the past and recently that

Beacon view Fishery is now under new ownership and all are welcome 

Please see our new facebook page 

beacon view lake

Hi, 

This used to be 1 of my local places to fish, I'm only 5 mi drive away.... Are there any changes to the fishery? 

Also, can't find on Facebook, have you got a link?

Search for beacon view lake and you'll find it mate.👍 the price has gone up a bit since I last went don't think I will be bothering myself. Mirrors and commons to 30lb I think that's being a bit optimistic myself. 🤔

I can't find no Facebook page, just the same pages I've seen before.... Saying Contact Graham but that's who sold up, being flood lit, £6 for 2 rods, Carp to 22lb is more realistic.... 

No Facebook though..
