About the water

Pool House Farm Fishery is a one-acre coarse fishing lake on Brick Kiln Lane near Middleton, between Coleshill and Tamworth. The water occupies a former clay pit dating back around 300 years. Originally two pools, it became a single lake when the outlet was filled in and water levels rose. The old dividing bank remains beneath the surface between pegs 3 and 15. Fishing is from purpose-made landing stages, with lily beds and vegetated margins providing features around the lake. Depths are generally three to four feet at the edges, reaching around five feet on one side of the submerged causeway and six feet in the section furthest from the car park. The page describes pole, waggler, feeder and leger fishing, alongside modern carp methods. Stocks include common and mirror carp to around 20lb, tench to 7lb, perch exceeding 4lb and crucian carp. Golden tench are also mentioned. Many pegs are suitable for disabled anglers, and parking is close to the lake. Site improvements include reinforced pegs and bridges and new toilets. Glamping pods with private hot tubs sleep up to four people. Anglers must obtain a ticket from the farmhouse before fishing. Keepnets are permitted, but common and mirror carp must not be retained in them.
