The Sitch is a naturally formed breath taking 26 acre estate lake, surrounded by mature dense woodland that boasts a spectacular variety of trees, and is home to a diverse range of wildlife.

The fishery has 20 purpose built pegs, some are situated in the woodland and others on purpose built platforms set out on the lakeside amongst the reed and sedges.

The lake is stocked with 450 young monument strain carp. These fish range from 12lbs-50lbs+ and are growing at a healthy rate, with the number of 20’s and 30's increasing each month! There are in excess of 120 x 30lbs fish with the lake record currently standing at 50lb 10oz. The number of 40's is increasing by the month with 10 x 40lbers.

The future looks promising for the Sitch as the fish continue to grow. With 450 fish multiple catches are a common place, these fish really respond to heavy baiting tactics and with depth’s not exceeding 4ft you are never too far away from your target.
