Venue Description

This water is reached from the path between Island and First Ponds. Its plan is oval with the spoil from the excavation making a large island in the middle. The pond is accessed via a gate which should be closed after use.

The pond has twenty plus pegs with the distance between the near bank and the island varying between twenty and thirty feet with an average depth of between four and six feet.

Mark Newman looks after this pond which is an ideal beginners water as catches are numerous and almost guaranteed. It holds carp to 14lbs, Crucian carp, roach, rudd, perch, golden orfe, tench, and the occasional small pike. Best baits are maggots, pellets, and sweet corn, with bigger baits on the bottom for the larger carp and tench.

Please note there are tackle restrictions on this pond – see NAFA Rules.  Fishing is dawn to dusk only, no bivvies, no bite alarms and no boilies.
