Carp and Coarse Fishery

Eye, Suffolk

We're delighted to announce that our partners, Midsuffolk Anglers, are making tickets available to their fishery on our site at Eye.

Our thirteen acre smallholding, which is used for commercially growing Cricket Bat willows, also houses a fully enclosed, secure, otter-fenced fishery. The fishery site covers seven acres, with four connected ponds giving two and a half acres of water and - because of the unique nature of the ponds - just over a kilometre of bankside.

The ponds have been carefully managed, restored and restocked, including the addition of VS carp, which have already achieved weights up to mid-twenties. The fishery has been lightly fished to protect and preserve the fish and the surroundings, meaning many of the carp are previously uncaught.

These complement the existing stocks of carp, roach, rudd, tench, bream, perch, chub, and crucians.

The fishery offers quality fishing in a nature-rich and bio-diverse environment. High water quality means there are willows, reeds, lilies, reedmace, dot islands, gravels and lots of weed beds. 

There is no long range casting; the fishery suits discerning anglers who appreciate their surroundings and can adopt a quiet approach. It is also ideal for beginners, or for those looking to add experience to their repertoire.

The fishing can be challenging but rewarding, and there are only eight swims to ensure everyone has their own space. To ensure no-one is disappointed, tickets are available by prebooking only, and to ensure privacy and safety, no-one is allowed on site without a valid ticket at any time.

Ticket booking details will be released soon!

Rules - notice

We don't like long lists of rules any more than you do; but we do need to protect the fish and the fishery. If you treat the environment and other anglers with respect and remember at all times that you're on private property, you'll always be welcome!

To save any problems, please do make sure you read and understand the rules on site.
