Can I do a day session?

Can I use rig tubing?

Yes. It's also OK to fish with a 'naked' line. All leaders are banned.

Can I have a look about the lakes if I'm not booked?

Quite a few years ago we decided not to allow anyone on site unless they are booked to fish for the day. The aim was to guarantee anglers uninterrupted security, peace and quiet. This proved popular and is now an important part of the fishery management. Apologies to those who would prefer to look before booking.

Will my two man bivvy fit in the swims?

Most swims can accomodate a two man bivvy, but not all. You must leave enough room for a wheelbarrow to pass when setting up.

Rod pods or banksticks?

80% of the swims are super easy for banksticks. 20% of the swims banksticks are possible but a little awkward. Stage stands will work in all swims. If i doubt pack a rod pod.
