Hello all,
I’m new to this site and this is my first post.
After selling up over five years ago when my first son arrived I have been itching to get back on the bank. Now with a “bonefide reason” to set up again (my lad is asking to go). I have the ammunition I need to get my pass stamped.
I’m looking to get my first days in over the next couple of weeks. Does anyone have any recommendations for a day ticket water which is still producing? I live in Upton and work in Leeds. Used to fish dicks pond and tarsal hall a lot when I lived that way. Was thinking about akworth or the new one at Thorpe audlin and then one over in Leeds the day after. Any input / assistance would be greatly appreciated.

First of all welcome fella everyone is helpful on here. Plenty of venues to try. I see y live in Upton. Ponds in Upton to fish membership only. Stubbs hall down the doncaster road. Ackton pond is good. Maggot farm pond in knottingley. Also look at the west Yorkshire venues page. A big list there. Any questions just ask on here and someone will get in touch.

Hello and welcome Uptonrich,
Owl Barn farm at South Kirkby not far from you, not fished it myself but by all accounts very good
There is a YF social match there next month, i think Warden has a write up on it somewhere
Have a look in the venues section there is plenty to go at locally and ask away lots of helpful friendly advice on here
Enjoy the return to the bank!

Cheers both.
I’ve not fished Howell Wood for a long time (25 years or so) it wasn’t the best kept last time I went for a look, I’m guessing it’s improved. Or is this not the same venue?
The fishery on Donnie road, is that siddy Bolton’s pond?
Going to have a look around bridge cottage fisheries in Thorpe audlin today to see what that’s doing.

You'll catch at Ackworth all through winter so will be a good introduction back. Thorpe Audlin probably slowed down a bit now. As someone said, Owl Barn is worth a visit with plenty of ide feeding or Lowfield Lakes at Bolton on Dearne is ok and not too far from you. If you're into match fishing we have a few winter social matches coming up, just an entry fee to pay and no prizes or anything. First one at Owl Barn on 2nd December.

If u want to catch plenty and taking a young one with you. Rustics is the best lake near you as non stop action on the little lake. Good place to get your young one hooked as plenty of carp

I’m sold! A confidence boosting trip to rustic it is then.
Just need to find somewhere in Leeds to go with the old man the day after. Any suggestions?

Hi Rich a booking on thread will appear soon in the YF social match section, if you want to look at past matches then a search for owl barn will bring some up I was hoping this would be my first YF match but cannot get the day off work :@
