This is one of my all time favorite venues, that consistently produces the goods.
Not a venue for the hardened specimen hunter, there are however carp in excess of 20lbs present in The Reservoir and Finches Pond.
Although largely ingnored by anglers targeting the carp, there are Roach over the 2lb mark present in The Reservoir as well as some very large Perch that are present in all the older waters.

The newer lakes have been designed as match venues, but these are not stocked solely with Carp, but also Roach, Rudd, Bream, Tench and even a few Barbel making for a varied days fishing.
Designed not to just favour the pole, good bags of fish can also be taken on Waggler and Leger tactics from every peg.


If you get the chance pay Hartleylands a visit, I'm sure you won't be dissapointed.
