Sumners Ponds
- The Fishing Lakes
The fishing lakes are
open from 7am each morning until dusk.
Resident campers and members may begin
fishing at 6am during the summer months
when the mornings are lighter. Day
tickets can be obtained from the chalet
or the bailiff who will make several
visits during the day. The fishery
rules can be viewed on the large notice
board in the car park, on the web site
and also on the back of all fishing
permits.
In the small pond we have carp to to 24lb, roach, tench,
rudd, chub, perch and crucians. In the big pond we have
carp to 34.5 lb, perch to 4 lb, chub to 6lb, bream to
7lb, roach to 2lb and pike to 15lb. The small pond is ‘easier’ to
fish, most of the time, and is very popular with younger
anglers. Our new 3.5-acre landscaped match lake provides
prolific fishing with barbell, chub, carp, crucians,
tench and roach. Primarily designed for the match fisherman
but provides great sport for the day ticket fisherman
too. Please check availability with the bailiff first.
Anyone wishing to fish after dusk, will need to become
a member of Sumners Ponds – please ask for details.
Younger children must be supervised. If you wish to leave
your child unattended you will need to inform reception
or the bailiff who will take a telephone contact number
where we can reach a parent at all times in the event
of an emergency or misbehaviour. Please note that we
care for the well being of our valuable fish stocks and
you must be sure to have read the rules and
have the correct equipment. Our staff are happy to advise
you and most experienced fishermen are happy to give
advice.
