Located in a secluded valley, Highway Farm's fishing lakes are the perfect place to relax and enjoy a day's fishing.
We have two established and sheltered spring-fed lakes which are well stocked with plenty of strains and sizes of carp to 12 lbs.
There is also an abundance of roach, rudd, and goldfish too.
Corn or meat on a light float set-up will bring plenty of bites from the well-conditioned carp or try sneaking around the bank with a few crusts of bread.
Alternatively, simply just try floating fish maggots, for the hoards of rudd to come swimming by.
