Hi all,

Has anybody heard of this venue? Apparently there are two lakes but I can’t find any info anywhere.

Cheers…

Julian

It's the Mill on the Soar on the B4114 near Broughton Astley.

Unless they have built a new lake in the last two years, there is only one modest lake with a large central island. It is a day ticket mixed fishery with some decent carp in it.

I haven't fished it for 5+ years and it changed hands and has been restocked since then, so I'd also be interested to know how it fishes these days.

Hi Dave,

Had a nice chat with the guy who has taken the place over – sounds well worth a visit. He said the place gets busy on a Sunday so it’s best to book a peg in advance.

I’ve done a full listing for the water in the Anglers Net database under: Mill on the Soar, Leicestershire.

Cheers...

Julian

Julian,

Thanks. Perhaps I'll give it another try one weekday evening this Spring, the tench maximum looks promising.

Dave.
