Fishery Information
For pleasure fishing, it’s hard to beat Alcott Farm. There are no matches and no competitive fishing expeditions at this quiet spot, but there are plenty of open banks, top-tier pegs, and wonderful fish.
The three pools were developed in 2000, with recent work refurbishing the banks and upgrading the basic conditions of the property.
There is a grass track around the pools, making it perfect for disabled anglers.
The three ponds are stocked with bream, chub, perch, and carp.
The largest pool is about 100 metres long and 50 metres wide, with 20 pegs surrounding it. Some pegs are double and eight have been designed with disabled anglers in firm focus.
The smaller pool is a quarter of an acre. Fishing is done from the banks here, with no pegs around the edges.
What size do the fish go to?
The large pool is stocked with common and mirror carp averaging between three and four pounds, but some bigger 13-pounders are in the water. Crucians up to one pound can also turn up.
