As a regular visitor to Southfields resovoir i was pleased to see that DDAA have aquired the A&C stretch from Goole to Great Heck, as part of the A&C amalgamation. This means that now if i get to the resovoir and find it either like a mill pond or booked for matches i can now set up on the canal and still have a good day.
So with the new season book in the seat box i am looking forward to next month.

Oh and it realy is good value £22. and you get one of the countrys top bream waters along with some deep canals and excelent river and drain, and the long pond, well worth the money.

Agreed Bradley, its one of the issues that the Donny D.A.A. folk have never really addressed. Wonder why? BOF  |

It's not as if there aren't any pits nearby, you only have to look out near Blaxton or Hatfield to see where there might have been opportunities in the past. But it is clear that, like a number of other clubs with good river fishing, the club did not see the growth of Carp fishing as anything that they should invest in. Mind you that is seen with the benefit of a personal interest in Carping on my part, and 20/20 hindsight.  BOF |

I know it might not be a big carp pit but the long pond is said to have some good sized ones in,
and there was a restocking last year on the same water.

I had a good carp a couple of years back from the prison stretch but again not very many. They just need an out and out carp water but like darren said its still a good ticket with some great waters on it.
