coarse fisheries and fast becoming one of the
best match and pleasure fishing venues in the
country. Set in a picturesque valley amidst 10
acres of idyllic Staffordshire countryside, the
site is situated two miles north of Eccleshall,
just off the A519. The four pools where designed
by owner Neil Dale who has nearly forty years of
angling experience behind him. Neil has won many
titles in match fishing, the highlight being a
member of the Izaak Walton (Stafford) AA side
that blitzed the NFA Division One National
Championships in 1986. Neil has realised a
lifetime ambition and used all this experience
to create a superb fishery. All of the pools are
easily accessible to the disabled angler. There
are nearly one hundred purpose built platforms
on the Canal and Bridge Pools alone. The
Specimen Lake and the Match Pool have vehicular
access for disabled anglers only. New for spring

selling a selection of hot and cold drinks. A
small selection of tackle and bait will also be
available. Visitors can park their cars on a
purpose built hard surface car park adjacent to
all the pools.
