Brief description of fishery:
The top lake is establishing well despite the dry conditions during the summer months. Some fish species have been stocked to this lake prior to the opening of the site in late spring of 2011. We want to ensure that we don’t get any non-native plants or fish species in the lakes so please don’t put anything in from your garden pond. Garden pond plants can easily be managed on the small scale but in a large lake can be very destructive. Also goldfish and other fish species from the ornamental trade often carry novel diseases which can kill native fish.
This project was funded by Environment Agency Rod Licence Sales and a contribution from Exeter & District Angling Association.
