NIGHT SEARCHER Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I didn`t know you could fish Ladybower and i have past it thousands of times. I used to pick up 20 ton loads of Cement out of the Hope plant. Do you fish from the bank or by a boat. ??. Is it on Day Ticket ?? price. And what do they charge for Boat hire ??.

felly100 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 There is/was a pike fishing on there and it has produced some very big fish. There still is,the treasurer of our fishing club is in the pike syndicate. He's had a few twenties out. I don't think any thirties have come out this year but he reckons they are in there. Another good pike spot near us is Damflask reservoir,a big body of water but has some real crocs in there,double figure bream too if you can find them!
