The waters are listed as Lake 1 – Carp & Silvers, Lake 2 – Canal & Basin, Lake 3 – Cat & Carp, Lake 4 – Specimen Carp and Lake 5 – Boat Lake. The lakes open to anglers at 7am and close at dusk, except for those with a pre-booked 24-hour fishing session. Lakes 1 and 2 do not require advance booking. Anglers wishing to fish Lakes 3, 4 or 5 must book ahead by calling the tackle shop. All anglers and visitors are asked to visit the shop to buy tickets or check in before walking around the site. An on-site tackle and bait shop opens by 9am every day. Facilities include separate ladies’ and gents’ toilets and showers, with the venue catering for day visits, 24-hour sessions and week-long stays. Accommodation is also available in Kingfisher Pod, which overlooks the Canal Basin. The pod provides a base for fishing at the lakes or visiting Tavistock and the surrounding area.
