Wellsfield Fishery is still relatively ICE FREE and all 3 ponds are open for fly and bait fishing with limited spaces on open water.
The ICE PREVENTION WAVE MACHINES & AERATORS have been on 24/7 since mid December and will continue doing a good job.
The ponds have a huge number of fish in them for the time of year as many anglers have not turned out to catch them over the festive period. A bonanza awaits for the anglers who wish to brave the cold thaw! Those that did brave the weekend weather all caught their limits and some purchased double permits.
Last Friday the ponds were well stocked with hundreds of fish on that day, including some very large double figure trout in the 15lb+ range. The stocking policy has remained the same over the festive icy period as we have had open water for fishing.
All Fly and Bait Ponds are open for fishing all winter 8am till 5pm, 7 days. We are fully committed to supplying angling to our customers.
Is is likely that Wellsfield will be open approximately two weeks ahead of other fisheries who are completely frozen over with 6inches+ of ice. Many fish farms and trout suppliers are also frozen so fish deliveries might be difficult for other fisheries – so go to Wellsfield, we have plenty fish!
