        Hi all

        I have a work fishing match at Helidon Lakes, Northampton. This is at a golf course and most reviews look rubbish. Has anyone fished it before or know if there is anything other than golf balls in it…?

        Thanks

          It was less than good as a trout fishery and it hasn’t improved as a course fishery for match fishing. Don’t expect a big weight, do expect a heart attack or hernia if you are not allowed to drive down and drop off and collect your kit. You might get a ride on a quad and trailer if the bailiff/groundsman is about. Not really a match water, fine for sitting out in fine weather and admiring the scenary.

          I’m reasonably local to the water and haven’t been back in 4 years and nobody I know who fishes locally would make a point of going….but don’t let that put you off. Things change, you just might have a good day.

            Thanks for the info, pretty much the same as I have read from reports posted a few years ago on other forums. Never mind it’s a free 2 day trip paid for by my employer – a bad days fishing is always better than a good days work..!

            Thanks again
