PARKERS LODGES ANGLERS are invited to join a syndicate of members to fish the private waters of Parkers Lodges.

Full membership £25/senior citizens and juniors £12.50, includes gate key and parking at the water's edge.

The top lodge has so far this year produced numerous bags of tench, plus bream up to 101b 2oz to 31b, carp are being caught on most visits to the lodge.

The larger lower lodge is a perfect match venue and will accommodate 50 peg matches and 50 car parking spaces on the water's edge.

We have removed most of the pike from the lodges over the past four years, which has encouraged a groundswell of roach and skimmer bream.

Carp up to 1lb are now being caught on the streamside.

Most of the match fees and membership charges will be invested in extra fishing stocks.

Barbel and chub will be introduced to the waters in the month of November.

For Summer and Winters Leagues, any club or group of anglers who wish to arrange matches on the lower lodge are welcome on these quite beautiful lodges.

Match fees of £4 per peg include car parking at the waterside.
