The full rundown on Finch Farm Fishery
Finch Farm Fishery sits on Drift Road at Hawthorne Hill, near Maidenhead, Berkshire. There are three sheltered coarse-fishing lakes here: Main Lake, Anaconda and Cat Lake. That gives you a choice between a mixed-species day and a more focused carp or catfish session, without heading to a different venue. We haven't fished it ourselves, so this is a practical rundown of what’s offered, rather than a tale of getting bagged up.
Main Lake is the largest water, with up to 40 swims and carp, tench, bream and roach listed. It’s the obvious starting point if you like having several species to go at rather than making the whole day about one bite. Anaconda is much smaller in swim count, at approximately six, and holds carp, tench and bream. Acreages aren't published, though, so don't mistake those peg counts for a measurement of water.
Cat Lake has approximately ten swims and holds specimen catfish alongside carp and other coarse fish. This is the one where your tackle needs particular attention before you leave home. The fishery requires minimum 3.5lb-test-curve rods, 25lb line and a 42-inch landing net, plus braided hooklinks but no braided mainline. No catfish weights are supplied here, so there’s no basis for promising a particular-sized lump or dangling a guaranteed PB in front of you.
For a straightforward day session, there’s not much booking faff: buy your ticket on the bank, with no advance booking needed. Bring a card, because cash isn't accepted. Tickets allow fishing throughout the site except in reserved swims, which is useful when deciding where to settle. Overnight fishing is different: arrange it at least 24 hours ahead and arrive by 4pm. Telephone or WhatsApp the fishery for bookings and enquiries.
The practical basics include hard-standing parking, toilets and wheelchair-suitable fishing platforms. Those are useful details, although anyone needing a particular accessible peg should ask about their requirements before travelling. Under-12s fish free when accompanied by an adult, and all under-16s must have an adult with them. Open matches are also available throughout the season on request. Keepnets are only allowed during official matches, so leave yours out of the ordinary day-session kit.
Before heading over, check the fishery’s Facebook for current closing times, as these can vary. Pike fishing has a specific season, from 1 October to 15 March; pike are listed for the venue, but their lake isn't identified here. Bringing a dog needs a call too, because the published policies disagree. Finally, pack single barbless hooks, a suitable landing net and an unhooking mat. Get those basics bob on before choosing your swim.

- Species
- carp, tench, bream, roach
Main Lake is Finch Farm’s largest water, offering up to 40 swims. Carp, tench, bream and roach give it the broadest explicitly listed species mix of the three lakes.
It’s a sensible starting point for a mixed-coarse day rather than a dedicated catfish session. Day tickets are bought on the bank, but reserved swims are excluded from the site-wide ticket.

Bait, rigs & seasons
How we'd fish Main Lake
carp
A neat lead-clip rig over a light scattering of bait
When you don't know the lake well yet, the simplest approach is the best start: a reliable bottom bait rig on a clean spot, with just enough bait to get a bite without filling them up.
- Feel the lead down to find a firm spot, then clip up so you hit it every cast.
- Fish a single boilie or wafter with 20–30 freebies around it.
- Leave one rod roving and recast it to showing fish.
tench
Lift method float for tench
Tench feed with their heads down and tip baits up — the lift method shows that bite as the float rising and lying flat.
- Fish the margin at dawn with a straight waggler, locked by a single big shot 2–3in from the hook.
- Rake or lightly bait the swim with hemp, corn and maggot.
- Strike when the float lifts or lies flat. Bread, corn or worm on a size 12–14.
bream
Waggler and groundbait for bream
If they're within waggler range, float fishing over balls of groundbait is a great way to pick off bream.
- Ball in groundbait with casters and chopped worm at the start.
- Set the float a touch over-depth and watch for slow lifts.
- Top up when bites slow.
roach
Float maggot for roach
On a mixed lake a waggler and a pint of maggots is the easiest way to keep the float going under all day.
- Feed six to ten maggots every cast.
- Shallow up if bites come on the drop.
- Size 18 hook and light hooklength.

Anaconda has approximately six swims, the smallest swim count of the three lakes. Its listed species are carp, tench and bream.
That makes it worth considering if those are your target fish and you prefer a water with fewer pegs. Fewer swims don't guarantee peace or an available spot, though, and no acreage is published.
