leeds chimp Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Moved down here last year and been able to get out a few times to Taswood Lakes on Grove, Barford Lakes and Cobblearce. Looking for some advice on any other lakes that might have missed or not heard of...been told about a place called Cranworth but not much on the Net tho Also any other lakes that are good for carp and hopefully get a few runs...shame there is not a Drayton Res style round here... And any places for the rivers aswell...done Wroxham to Horning a few times on a boat that we rent out but other places that can walk to would be nice. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR1960 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Reepham's ok and for 24 hours might be a good bet if you want to catch some fish but not a monster. Taverham mills is pretty good as is catch 22 at Lyng. Don't know what fritton decoy is like nowadays, used to be some monster bream years ago. Ormseby broad if you fancy a boat, (Eels foot pub) martham broad used to fish quite well but haven't been for years. Want any more?

fagin Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 depends on what type of carpin you fancy? Just jacked (this summer) after a 5yr stint on the rivers of suffolk after the carp. been mad i can tell you with some very strange results. Im on the norfolk suffolk border and if you fancy a chat about some spots on the river (free not day ticket) let me know. always keen to help a fellow angler. The river carp might not be as big as the pit fish but they pull your string a lot harder lb for lb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Have a look here http://www.go-fish.co.uk/norfolk.htm i used to fish a place called the Nunnery Lakes in Thetford, Norfolk which was good but quite hard to get into as a member.

MattSoanes Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Broom pits near Bungay is well worth a look, several lakes with different stock levels and sizes, good for a bend in the rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikee Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 there are too many lakes to list, if you want some easy carping for a few runs a day with fish to mid doubles try weybread middle pit or join the club then you get access to the club pit and bottle pit, kidney pit on the broome complex is worth a chuck, swangy at attleborough, yew tree in wortwell i think is still day ticket, if rivers are your thing then there is plenty of public access and day ticket fishing on the wensum and waveney and some on the bure. send me a pm if you want some more info mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
