Wing Fishing Lakes
WING FISHING LAKES ARE OPEN
Set among acres of countryside, Wing Fishing Lakes are made-up of two good-sized, well-stocked lakes in the grounds of Wing Hall. A guide and plan of the site can be downloaded here.
Designed to offer challenges to all levels, the lakes hold general Coarse Fish including Carp, (Ghost and Common), Bream and Tench.
The Lakes each offer over an acre of surface area, with 20 pitches on each lake, there is always plenty of space and privacy.
So far, the largest reported catch was a 27lbs Carp - locally known as 'Nessie'. More regular catches are 15lbs carp (other examples from the 2009 Fishing Competition are featured below!).
A relaxed and friendly atmosphere is the essence of the Lakes; on arrival Visitors can drive cars up to the lakeside and choose a pitch; the Warden will come to you and issue your ticket upon receipt of payment.
It is possible, by prior request, to hire the Lakes for matches. Please contact us for further details.
