Monument 2
In 2012 we took the decision to build a second lake and work started on Lake 2 in spring 2013. This will opened on September 1st meaning 2015.
The Monument 2 is 10 acres in size, boasting 2 double pegs and 14 other swims, meaning it can house 18 anglers at any one time, all the pegs cover a substantial amount of water and will give all the anglers a chance of a big hit of fish regardless of the peg you book onto. We started with stocking 650 fish in 2015 with a range of fish between 15lb+ 45lb+. Now in 2025 Monumnt 2 still holds around 650+ fish with us stocking the venue every other year with 10 - 20 fish with some of these being in excess of 40lb+. Monument 2 now holds over 100 - 30lb+ fish, 14 - 40lb+ fish 1 - 50lb+ fish in the shape of 'Bella' which has reached a top weight of 51lb 12oz.
Every peg on the Monument 2 is fitted with a double waterproof plug socket. Pegs 5,6,7,8 which face the prevailing wind constantly have had substancial wind breakers made from rail way sleeper to make your session more comfortable.
When to fish
Our sessions are 36hrs long, these start at 6:30am (7.00am in winter) in the morning on the first day of the session and finishes at 6:30 (dusk in winter) of the evening on the second day of the session.
Monday -Tuesday
Thursday - Friday
Saturday - Sunday
Longer sessions
Anglers booking consecutive sessions are now allowed to stay in their bivvies on the swim providing they hand their rods in at the fishery office at the end of the first session. For example fishing a Thursday/Friday and Saturday/Sunday session back to back the angler can remain in the swim Friday night but no fishing allowed and Rods must be handed in. Rods will be kept securely locked up and handed back at the start of the second session (Saturday morning). This can be done Thursday – Friday, Saturday – Sunday, Monday – Tuesday sessions in this order. We are closed on Wednesdays. You also cannot arrive the night before your session and bivvy up on your peg and had the rods in.
