This is a former clay pit of about 4 acres just outside Bovey Tracey on Bradley Road. It is approached by the unmade road by the sharp bends as you approach Bovey Tracey from Chudleigh Knighton.  The gate has an association padlock.  This popular match venue holds roach to 2lb, perch to 3lb, skimmers and bream to 6lb, a few carp approaching 30lb and some trout.  The pole and waggler work well for the match or pleasure angler, with both top and bottom baits working for carp.

This tranquil and secluded water supports a large amount of wildlife and makes an ideal retreat.
