Clavering Lakes

Fishing pond

😠 Lovely venue, great for a social, we hired the specimen lake, been here 24, with another night left, but unfortunately don’t feel these fish are specimens, landed around 15 fish so far, nothing over 20lb smallest being 4lb, and only 3 out of the fish had decent mouths. Shame really as is a nice pla... People often mention fish, lake, great, carp,

    I am only giving three star because of the horrible conditions from the first car park which takes us to Mach lake or predator lake please will the owners put down some wood chippings as I have had to spend and hour cleaning my trolley and boots before I could enter my flat . And this is the main reason I do not fish newlands Any more is he dose not look after the walk ways other than that clavering is a wonderful place to fish

    Beautiful surroundings, peaceful, no litter, friendly helpful people, good clean amenities and the fish were biting! The lodge was not open for food and drinks today, but when it is open, the food and service is excellent!.

    Amazing place, peaceful and very clean. The only downfall is the fact that are no toilets, but that is only a small issue, all amazing.

    Great place to fish for all levels of experience. Match lake is the best for quick bites, even land a double digit fish.

    Right me and my girlfriend have been coming here for the last 5 weeks, and every weekend have been amazing apart from this last one, every weekend we have had the same bailiff come round to us and check our tickets and he was super friendly gave us some advice on what other have been catching on ext but last night the bailiffs son come down at 9pm to check our tickets, he was extremely rude and made us feel extremely unwelcome it was me and my girlfriend and 2 other people who were on the bank next to us who we didn’t know, the couple who were learning how to fish asked us for some advice and we were happy to help, at 9 when the bailiffs son come down he kept trying to interrogate us and kept asking us if we knew this other couple due to them not paying, they were happy to pay after they were told that they have to pay but the son threw them out and told them not to come back,(what a great introduction to fishing) after that he told me my ticket was invalid and didn’t cover the night I am fishing, so I checked and from my mistake I did accidentally buy the wrong ticket, (from talking to other anglers this is easily done) but I was happy to pay for the day I fished and the night I was about to fish, so Infront of him I showed him that I confirmed my order and got my receipt, this was not enough for him he then told me he will be back in 30 minutes to one make sure that other couple had gone, all though they were leaving and to make sure I had paid even though I had him staring at my phone while the payment had gone through to the lake. 30 minutes had gone past after he left and he had come back still in a mood and told me my payment had gone through but he wants me to be gone by the morning. This is not okay and I am not happy at all with the way this man spoke to me considering the fact I was extremely polite and was happy to sort the issue I won’t be coming here again for a while thanks mate, I’ll pay my money to a lake that has some respect

    Excellent fishing lakes, well stocked with decent size fish. Nice cover all around the lakes. At weekends the lodge is open for food and drinks, which is also really good.
