Six of the Society's 12 lakes are situated at our
Goose Green complex near Ashington, West Sussex.
The long planned expansion of Goose
Green started to take fruition on Saturday 26th & Sunday 27th March
2005,
see
the Goose Green
page for the latest updates on the work in progress.
These lakes vary in size and depth and offer superb
pleasure and match fishing in a woodland environment, that contains many
different species of birds, from Blue, Great & Long Tailed Tits, Tree
Creepers and Nightingales to Buzzards soaring overhead.
Heron Lake (formerly Lakes 1 & 2) contains
Carp of all sizes from ounces to doubles, Bream, Tench, Perch, Rudd,
Roach, Skimmers, Crucians and Gudgeon, the lake is probably the most
popular with anglers as it caters for many different disciplines,
pleasure catches in excess of 50lb are common in the warmer months.
Canada Lake (formerly Lake 3) holds a large head of Carp, Hybrids,
Bream, Skimmers & Tench with literally thousands of good Roach & Rudd,
pleasure catches in excess of 60lb are commonplace in the Summer months.
Kingfisher Lake (formerly Lake 4) has been stocked predominantly with Bream,
Skimmers, Hybrids, Crucians, Hybrids, Tench, Gudgeon, Roach & Rudd, it
also holds a small head of Carp to 6lb, pleasure catches in excess of 50lb
are commonplace in the warmer months.
New Pond is a small lake holding just four pegs, but
don't let the relatively small size of this Lake put you off, as it
contains a good head of quality fish, including Crucians, Tench, Skimmers,
Perch, Carp, Roach & Rudd.
Deep Lake, has been now been completed and will open
to anglers on or before the 1st February 2008, the lake which has been
enlarged considerably from it's previous size, contains only small fish,
including Roach, Rudd, Perch, Gudgeon, Crucian Carp, Tench, Chub, Skimmers
and small Carp, and we do mean small, the biggest is probably no bigger
than 8 ounces at best.
Tench Pond, as it's name suggests is stocked with
Tench, there is also a good head of silvers and a few Carp present in this
Lake.
The car park is adjacent to five of
the six lakes and offers ease of access especially for our less able
bodied members, we have also removed every set of steps around the fishery
and replaced them with ramps.

Moor Farm comprises three large
lakes, each of which has it's own individual stocking policy, in quiet and
picturesque farmland near Petworth, West Sussex. The top lake is approximately three acres
in size and contains Tench and Crucian Carp. The water in this
lake is quite deep, we therefore ask that all junior members are accompanied by an adult for safety.
The Middle Lake is stocked with carp of all sizes
from low single figure fish to 25lb+ doubles, Carp species stocked are
Mirror, Leather and Common Carp, the lake also contains quality Roach &
Rudd, plus a good head of Tench & Crucians, this lake is perfect for the
specimen carp angler who is looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of
overcrowded day ticket waters.
The
Bottom Lake once again is approximately three acres in size and is a mixed
fishery. This lake contains Carp, Tench, Bream, Perch, Roach, Rudd,
specimen sized Eels and beautiful Golden Rudd, match weights here, have in
the last year broken the 100lb barrier, and three hour evening matches
are regularly won with weights in excess of 60lb.
This complex of lakes is ideal for disabled anglers
and those with mobility problems, as the fishery has mainly flat grassy
banks, night fishing is not allowed at Moor Farm, you must be off the
water by dusk.
