Does anyone have any info on this place?

I pass it quite regular going to the hospital down the road and would love to try the place.
I'm lead to believe it's a private syndicate but any info would be great

Many thanks
Phil


Admin obviously I didn't mean pong and Infact pond! Cannot see how to edit title 😂

.As you come off Mway going towards hospital left hand side used to be on wigan card stuffed with bream and some stunning very old carp but suffered a fish kill 20 odd years ago and was sold to house owner no fishing now, One on right used to belong to police club but now private syndicate and absolutely no chance of getting to fish.

Aww that's a shame as it's the one on the right that took my eye.

I work on the ambulances so Everytime I have seen it's it's been on a quick dash to the hospital but seen a few guys on there and looks such a great place

I've worked on the no fishing lake. Got to see them spawning. About 25-30 fish average size 12-15lb mainly commons.
Most of it mega shallow.

Yes very shallow deepest part is by the wall at top end about 3 feet. Much bigger fish on other side.
