Hi All [
]
Was reading some of my publications on day and club waters last night and come across this one that I thought was appropriate for this part of the forum.
YELVERTOFT FISHERY
Several of the fisheries in the area boast about their odd peg or two reserved for disabled anglers this fishery however has ALL it's pegs accessable to the disabled angler both wheelchair bound and visually impaired alike.
Brian Faulkner, the owner, who is himself confined to a wheelchair, created this 12 peg fishery back in 1992. The lake has depths of up to 16ft in the middle and is stocked with a variety of carp including Ghosties, commons, and mirrors, alongside which is ahealthy selection of tench, roach, chub, rudd, dace, perch, and gudgeon.
The current individual record stands at 102lbs in 5 hours.
Groundbait is only allowed in feeders, and barbless hooks are the norm.
Fishery is open all year round during the hours of daylight, and welcomes ALL anglers, both disabled and able bodied.
Toilet and washing facilities are easily accessable.
A flat and level concrete path encircles the lake leading to each of the 9'x8' wide timber fishing bays. The ample car park is visible from each and every peg for anglers to keep an eye on their cars.
Day tickets are currently 4.00, concessions at 3.50 for walking disabled, OAP's, Blind and wheelchair anglers 2.00
For further details or bookings ring Brian on 01788 823456
Actually come to think of it maybe Digger Barnes and the Rugby lads know of this fishery already. How about it Digger? Have you been there?
