About the water

Newlands Ponds is a series of four lakes at Clipstone in Nottinghamshire, with parking and access described on the venue page. All four ponds are for members only, and a key is required. Fishing is available throughout the year, with no closed season, but night fishing is prohibited. The waters contain roach, bream, carp, tench, perch and occasional chub. The page describes skimmers reaching 2lb and carp well above 10lb. It mentions pellet, paste and small pieces of luncheon meat as baits used for skimmer fishing. Groundbait may be used only in moderation, while boilies and bivvies are not permitted. Pond 1 can experience low water levels, which may lead to a temporary keepnet ban. Anglers are asked to observe all notices. Pond 4 has overhead power cables and is subject to specific safety restrictions: fishing beyond the signs is prohibited, and only poles may be used, with no rods and reels allowed. The published directions approach the ponds via Crown Farm Way and a bridleway at the bottom of the dip. Routes are provided from the A614 through Kings Clipstone and New Clipstone, and from the A617 via Oak Tree Lane and Violet Hill.
