The site covers approximately 36 acres, with nine fishing lakes or pools at The Glebe. There are also more than a dozen wildlife ponds across the wider site. It’s a coarse-fishing venue, with carp, bream, tench, roach, rudd and perch reported. Other reports mention barbel and crucian carp too, so there’s a decent spread of coarse fish to aim for.

A couple of the pools have names that’ll get the bank talk going. Pool 2 is known as the Pretty Fish Pool, while Pool 3 is called Uglies. The available details don’t split out individual lake sizes, depths or species, so it’s worth asking the fishery which pool best suits your plan before booking or choosing a swim. A quick chat with the bailiff or membership contact could save a fair bit of faff.

The Glebe is primarily a members-only water. Members may purchase guest day tickets for other people, with a recent listing reporting those at £10 per day. Ordinary day tickets aren’t available to non-members, so this isn’t a turn-up, chuck-in-and-hope sort of venue. Sort the membership or guest ticket first, and check the current position directly with the fishery before loading the car.

The reported fishing season runs from 1 June to 31 March, with fishing from dawn until dusk. Night fishing isn’t permitted. The fishing platforms and pegs are described as comfortable and generally accessible, which should make getting settled fairly bob on. Bring the usual landing net and unhooking gear, and ask about the best approach for the pool you’re heading to rather than assuming every lake fishes the same.

There’s match action and organised competition at the fishery, but keepnets are permitted only during official matches. Outside those events, plan your session around landing and looking after fish properly without a keepnet. The rules are important here: hooks must be barbless and no larger than a regular size 10, while braided line, method fishing, method feeders, floating and subsurface floating baits, dog biscuits, floating particles, nuts, bloodworm, joker and meat baits including pet food are prohibited. Only coarse pellets may be used, with trout pellets banned. Landing nets, keepnets, unhooking mats and weigh slings must be dipped before and after fishing, and dogs aren’t allowed. For booking or membership enquiries, contact the fishery directly with the fishery.

Good background reading. Most of it is a few years old, so treat it as a starting point and ask on the day.
