About Us

Bringing You Closer to Nature

Driven by Nature

Supporting local Anglers for generations

Home Reared Carp

Our home-reared carp have been specifically cultivated in a controlled pond environment since being C’s (2 year old). With carful handling, we aim to bring them on to become high-weight, quality specimens as they grow year upon year.

Our Codes of Conduct

Our codes of conduct ensure fish & environmental protection, for a respectful angling experience. Core rules include barbless hooks, unhooking mats & nets, antiseptic application, careful handling, zero litter tolerance, respecting other anglers & wildlife.

Snap Shack

Currently stocking, pop, crisps and general chocolate bars. We also stock local honey and our own chicken eggs when available.
