Hi guys.
I don’t fish myself but for the past 15 years have owned a very pretty, centuries old carp lake across the road from my house in semi-rural Warwickshire.
It comprises about 1.25 acres of water in about 2.5 acres of land and is surrounded by a 0.8 acre lawned area ( including hard standing for about 8 cars – accessed via a steel field gate off the adjoining road ) on one side and mature trees / neighbouring fields on three other sides.
I have allowed a few people to fish there over the years but have used the property primarily for my own private enjoyment rather than as a commercial venture.
The carp ( in excellent condition and with a couple in double figures ) breed and feed freely in the natural, spring-fed waters and there is a resident catfish ( I haven’t heard of it being caught for a couple of years ) which should now be in excess of 30 lbs along with a small number of other fish species.
Despite the claims made by some estate agents there doesn’t seem to be an obvious place to advertise and market such specialist properties and a friend of mine suggested trying the better on-line fishing forums.
One of my brothers has piggy-backed a web page with full details onto his own web site and the URL is http://carpswell.matchwalk.com/
Do get in touch if you are interested or you know of someone who might be.
TF_Paddy.
