CHARLIE'S POOL
Charlie's pool is a water kept free all year exclusively for both pleasure anglers and cabin dwellers - it is never match fished. The pool is ideal for those anglers wanting guaranteed sport or to catch something a little more exotic. As well as carp, roach, rudd, skimmer bream and perch, Charlie's pool is also stocked with koi carp, golden orfe, grass carp, brown gold fish as well as other hybrid species. Each time the float disappears, it's a new species on the end of the line!
Charlie's Pool is the latest addition to Woodside Fishery opening in May 2011. The pool was originally excavated for the growth and development of koi carp and other ornamental fish. However, due to a change in direction, the pool has now been stocked with carp, F1's, roach, rudd, skimmer bream and perch.
Carp are available in large numbers up to 5lbs, perch to over 4lbs as well as some very good quality roach also featuring in pleasure catches.
The pool has been designed specifically with the pleasure angler in mind and caters for approximately ten (10) anglers.
Depths vary from 2.5-10ft with the average depth being between 4-6ft. The deeper water is found towards the far end nearest the woods with the bottom dropping away very steeply. The shallower water can be found directly in-front of the cabin development.
Tried and tested methods include pole and pellet short or long to depth for good mixed bags. Fish are also caught up in the water with pellet, maggot and / or casters. Please note, drop shotting is also allowed for those anglers wanting to target the big perch in Charlie's pool which, as mentioned above, have been taken in excess of 4lbs as recently as May 2015.
Charlie's pool has been many years in the making and we firmly believe this is one of the finest pools available to fish on the complex.
Charlie's pool is not used for matches meaning availability for pleasure anglers is good all year round. Given it's location on site, Charlie's pool is popular among cabin dwellers.
