Thanks. Seems to have changed hands recently, and the old website and FB page replaced, so can't find much info on stock etc, do you know what's in there?

Have a look on the Arrow Meadow Fishery website, they have a couple of venues suitable for 4 anglers on an exclusive basis.

Woolpack lake 4 exclusive might suit, reasonably priced not fished there my self but others on the forum may have and can advise if its worthwhile.

Burghfield gold lake is a good venue, best of the ones we've fished as a group so far in the UK. Locked otter fence all the way around so only other people you might see/hear are those on Blue Pool next door. Stock has a good balance where there are some big ones but also enough smaller fish that you should catch.
No facilities other than toilet though.

cheers for the Woolpack shout. It looks lovely - and a great price - but can anyone who's fished there comment on the weed? Not a total deal breaker but couple of us not massively confident in a ton of weed if I'm honest!

Cheers. They do look cracking waters, but the one with the sort of size fish we're after is two anglers only, darn it

thanks mate. Gold Lake is defnitely on the shortlist! Good to hear your thoughts after fishing it. Certainly not cheap for exclusive - would you say it's worth it?

Thanks mate. Waldens looks like it will be one to watch, but average stamp so far maybe not *quite* what we're after.

Furzebray is def on the shortlist - have you fished it, if so which lake would you recommend?

I think so, venue as I said is quiet and secure so you can park up and know you won't get disturbed or have folk wandering around. Shape of the lake works well to give everyone some private water to go at and gives options of margin work or fishing to reeds/spots. Plus of course some cracking looking fish! Trakker did a good video on there which I think was filmed in the autumn.

Is there anything of interest in that moon lake that's opening for booking or is it just stockies? I was of the understanding that everything was nicked from the surrounding waters and put in Mary's?
Are you sure?
