For me I’m based in Reading and have a huge expanse of waters within half hour from me so pretty lucky! Would probably travel an hour or 2 if needed.

25 minutes for a club lake that to be honest id rather feeder fish for F1s and bream as had the carp i want and a lot of the carp fishermen on there are grumpy miserable sods most of them use fishing to get drunk and high as a kite which i want no part in.
1hr 30 for small syndicate hardest place I've ever fished but its so tranquil quiet and out the way its what i imagine carp fishing to be nice estate lakes hidden away by trees clear water to watch the fish and no shopping trolleys or drunken morons and as i fish during the week more often than not i only see 1 or 2 other people there

Pond 1 - 20min drive on rural roads
Pond 2 - 40mins up the M20
As I do mostly overnighters, option 2 isn't an option on School nights

Got a club ticket that is 15 mins walk which I took out when we weren't allowed to drive last year and I quite enjoyed the fishing short sessions so kept that. My main syndicate is about 40 mins away and have my name down for one that is about 90 mins away. Used to happily travel 2 to 2 1/2 hours before I got on this current syndicate

I'm lucky that my club lake is 20 min drive one way. But have looked at other clubs to join but hour and half or so away.
|
|
|
|
|
I fish fairly local 30mins away sometimes but most of the lakes I fish are 2/3 hours away each way, just depends where you want to go to fish
|
|
|
|
|
How far do you guys drive to get to a lake ? I've done about an hour an a half one way. I've heard of people doing 2 and a half to 3 hour one way. Or do you like staying local as such
