Kirkby Mallory
Mallory Park Fishery
Mallory Park Fishery
Kirkby Mallory · 1 lakes on site
Mallory Park Fisheries offers members-only carp and mixed coarse fishing around the race circuit near Kirkby Mallory and at The Glebe, Peckleton. There’s a decent spread of species, but get access sorted first — this isn’t a walk-in day-ticket venue.
69%Cudmore Fisheries
Newcastle-under-Lyme · 3 lakes on site
Cudmore’s day-fishing lakes are closed for 2026, so don’t turn up expecting a cheeky day ticket. The current booking list offers pre-booked nights on Avoca and Tara, with carp, catfish and three islands on each water.
81%Lindholme Lakes
Doncaster · 8 lakes on site
Lindholme Lakes near Doncaster gives coarse and match anglers a proper choice of water, from compact Strip to 8.5-acre Bennys. There’s plenty off the bank too, with a tackle shop, places to eat and holiday accommodation.
69%Tyram Hall Fishery
Hatfield · 3 lakes on site
Tyram Hall has three different options: mixed coarse fishing on Island, booked day-ticket carp and pike fishing on Horseshoe, and a members-only Syndicate Lake. There’s a café, parking and an accessible toilet, but check current prices and winter hours before heading over.
60%Llangollen Canal
Ellesmere · 3 lakes on site
Proper canal fishing around Ellesmere, with Waterway Wanderers covering specific lengths rather than the whole waterway. Get your permit sorted before heading out, and keep those bridge boundaries handy.
72%Ladywood Lakes
Mirfield · 2 lakes on site
Ladywood Lakes gives you two cracking carp options in Mirfield: a deep, feature-packed specimen lake and a smaller runs water. Both are advance-booked overnight venues, so this isn’t a turn-up-for-a-cheeky-afternoon setup.
Welham Lake
Malton · 1 lakes on site
Welham Lake is a 5.5-acre specimen water near Malton, with advertised carp to 26lb-plus and tench to 10lb-plus. Woodland surroundings, membership-only fishing and firm fish-care rules give it a clear focus: come prepared and look after your catch.
79%Viaduct Fishery
Somerton · 6 lakes on site
Viaduct is a cracking six-lake coarse fishery in Somerton, with beginner-friendly fishing, proper carp and plenty of mixed-fish options. Just pick your water carefully: Campbell is matches-only, and some Middle pegs are reserved for lodge guests.
77%Todber Manor Fisheries
Sturminster Newton · 8 lakes on site
Todber Manor is a proper mixed bag: specimen carp and catfish, island-filled coarse water and match lakes across an advertised 11-lake complex. Pick your lake carefully — a silverfish day and a session chasing lumps are very different trips here.
0%Lakeside Fisheries
Newark · 1 lakes on site
Bit of a location mix-up here: the checked details identify Lakeside Fishery Ranskill, near Retford, not Lakeside Fisheries in Newark. The address is Access Road, Ranskill, Retford, DN22 8LW.
Oswestry
Weston Pools Fishery
Weston Pools Fishery
Oswestry · 6 lakes on site
Weston Pools near Oswestry offers six named coarse waters, a proper mixed bag of species and plenty of scope for pleasure or match fishing. Adult day tickets are £12 for two rods, with Clay Pit sitting a mile away from the main complex.

Bridgnorth · 8 lakes on site
Boldings Pools near Bridgnorth is a sprawling mixed-coarse venue with plenty of choice for pleasure and match anglers. There’s a café, free entrance parking and adult day fishing at £10 — just check the opening-time clash and get the bait rules bob on before heading over.
Bridgnorth
Monkhall Fishery
Monkhall Fishery
Bridgnorth · 6 lakes on site
Monkhall is a six-pool coarse fishery at Monkhopton near Bridgnorth, with a proper mix of pleasure fishing and match action. Kingfisher is normally kept for pleasure anglers, while regular opens and club bookings give the competitive crowd plenty to go at.
65%Howle Pool Fisheries
Newport · 1 lakes on site
Howle Pool is a 3.5-acre, spring-fed carp water near Newport, with nine woodchipped pegs and advertised commons and mirrors to 23 lb. Book online for a day or a 24-hour session, but check the checkout price and finish time because the website has a couple of conflicting figures.
81%Ivy House Lakes
Royal Wootton Bassett · 7 lakes on site
Seven waters across a 22-acre complex give Ivy House Lakes a cracking spread, from beginner-friendly double pegs to exclusive carp fishing. Pick your water carefully: the mixed-coarse tickets, Willow sessions and Specimen Lake bookings work quite differently.
78%Hampton Springs Fishery
Malpas · 8 lakes on site
Eight spring-fed lakes, mixed coarse fishing and carp to get you thinking about a PB — Hampton Springs has plenty going on. Just pick your water before loading the car: some lakes need booking, and Folly is syndicate-only.

Finding somewhere to fish near you
Type a town, county or fish into the box up top — something like “Nottingham”, “carp Nottinghamshire” or “day ticket River Trent” — and we'll pull up the waters we've checked nearest that spot. Around Nottingham, for example, you'll find canal stretches, the tidal-free middle Trent and plenty of commercial lakes within a short drive.
Every listing tells you the stuff you actually need before you load the car: what's in each lake or stretch, whether it's a day ticket, club or syndicate water, the house rules and what a ticket costs when we last checked. Rules and prices change, so always give the fishery or club a quick shout before you go.
Rivers, canals and stillwaters fish completely differently. Lakes reward a bit of watercraft and steady feeding; rivers are all about flow, depth and level, so we show live river levels where we can. Use the water-type and fish filters to narrow it down, then open a venue for the lake-by-lake or stretch-by-stretch lowdown.
