Baden Hall Lakes
This is the main pleasure pool, which is very popular for all round fishing. It covers approximately 10 acres, with depths ranging from 4ft to 14ft. The shallower water is off the road end at 4-6ft, and the deeper water is at the Dam Pool end from 6-14ft. There are shallow margins all around, producing a lot of summer fish.
There are 67 pegs on this pool, however it is not pegged as a match pool. The Middle Pool is for pleasure anglers only, it is not available for matches and keepnets are not allowed.
The Middle Pool is our specimen lake. It contains most species of fish ranging from gudgeon to 30lb carp. The average carp is from 10-15lbs. The average bream is from 1-6lbs, going up to 12lbs. Some nice roach have been recorded, going up to 3lbs
Carp are caught on most methods. Floating, ledgered and waggler baits are all very successful in summer. The bream, tench and barbel fish best on feeder, tip or waggler
Best baits for Carp are meat, corn, chickpeas, lupins and all surface baits. Best baits for bream, roach and tench are corn, maggot, pellet, paste and bread.
BADEN HALL FISHERY is now one of the largest pleasure fisheries in the country, comprising eight individual pools, covering over 30 acres of water and holding over 275 pegs, specialising in pleasure and club anglers.
All of the pools are stocked with coarse fish - carp, bream, roach, tench, barble, orfe, golden orfe, etc.
Six of the pools are available for match bookings, holding from 10-50 pegs per pool. Two pools are for the pleasure angler only and are never let out for matches, thus ensuring over 100 pegs are always available for the day-fisherman, with carp reaching 32 lbs, bream 11lbs and tench 10 lbs. For more information on the individual pools, see the map in Fishery Pools, and follow the links.
The newest addition to the fishery is the Specimen Carp Water. Since opening on the 15th June 2007, over 200 fish have been caught, the biggest of which was 32lbs. For more information on this water, follow the link.
Tickets must be obtained from Reception before fishing. If you arrive before 7:00am, you may go to a peg and set up, but you must first check the noticeboard at Reception for rules and matches, and you must return after 7:30am to pay. Alternatively, you can purchase a ticket from the automated ticket machine, however you must have the correct money for this as it only takes coins, and gives no change. Baits such as meat, corn and pellet are available from Reception, as are refreshments such as cans of Coke and Fanta and chocolate bars.
