The 3 acre, spring fed, lake is located in Boxmoor, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. The fishery offers fly fishing to members for rainbow, brown, tiger & spastic trout.
Fly fishing only, for full details please see the Fishery Rules.
The lake is regularly stocked with rainbow trout every few weeks, although no stocking takes place in May/June/July & August for obvious reasons.
When caught, the rainbow trout are retained and the brown trout are released.
Also found in the lake are common carp, perch and if you are lucky the occasional ide.
The lake is sited in redeveloped watercress beds. The land was purchased by local residents, to prevent development, and was excavated in the late 1979’s for use as a trout fishing lake.
To the South is the Grand Union Canal and to the North are domestic style chalet dwellings. The lake is ‘spring fed’ from artesian wells once used to supply the watercress beds. The chalk filters the water supplying the lake and comes from the Chiltern Hills.The water from the artesian wells has been found to be particularly pure and suitable for use in high quality aquaria.
