Stafford Fishery, Carp, Match & Pleasure Waters
MIDDLE POOL
Middle Pool is one of our most popular runs water on the complex with 100's of quality carp ranging from 10lb to 27lb.
Middle Pool can be a very prolific water in the warmer months, and our current record is held by regular angler Stuart Moss who landed 125 carp in a 48hr session back in 2013. Middle Pool is also a very good winter water and is very popular for a few runs in the colder weather.
We have a large orange koi around 26-27lb in Middle Pool and this fish swims around with a bounty on its head. The capture of the koi can win 48hrs free fishing if the lucky angler has pictures and comes into reception.

Baits
