Welcome to Alders Farm Fishery
Set in a picturesque valley near the village of Great Brickhill, Nr Milton Keynes, Alders Farm Fishery offers a great deal to the Match, Specimen and Pleasure Angler alike. The spring fed lakes cover a total of 3 and a half acres and offer a full variety of sport. As a direct result of the mineral-rich spring feeds, the venue has built a reputation of producing bumper fish to 30lb plus and bulging match weights to well over 200lb in the depth of winter.
Match weights are made up from mostly Carp in the 2lb to 5lb range, with pellet & paste popular in summer and maggot and soft pellet good in winter. The Specimen lake boasts at least 15 'thirties' and a large head of twenties which can be taken on bunches of maggot fished over PVA bags of Pinkies or standard Boilies tactics.
The best fish to date was a cracking 36lb 2oz Carp.
The silver fish lake boasts a head of Bream in the 4lb to 7lb bracket and a number of Barbel to around 2lb. There are plenty of Rudd that feed all year round and can make up decent weights on their own.
Alders Farm Match Lake
The match lake has established itself as one of the finest of it's kind in the UK. Even in winter the winning bags can exceed 200lb of mostly carp in the 2lb to 5lb range. The odd bigger fish will put in an appearance to keep the matchmen honest, and with fish into double figures a few of these can be the difference between winning and loosing.
Matches have been won on Pellet, Paste, Corn, Maggot and Luncheon Meat, indeed the winning pegs are as varied as the winning baits, making Alders Farm Match Lake a popular venue in the Open Match scene around Milton Keynes and the South of England.
Pole, waggler or feeder tactics, depending on conditions, can all figure during the 5 hour match period, although those pegs on the popular islands seem to get a little more feeder action than others.
Alders Farm Specimen Lake
The specimen water on this three lake venue is around tree and a half acres in size and boasts a couple of small islands that are obvious features. We have stocked some very, very big Carp to add to the stock that was already present.
While many of these have already spawned successfully, the average size of the the Carp in this lake is very big. To complement the huge head of twenties, estimated at 50% of the stock density, there are at least 15 thirties, and all available on a day-ticket priced at £15 per day (dawn 'til dusk) or £24 to include a Night Ticket.
