Hi guys

just trying to get some info on this place or the little bit that channels off to the basin in Skipton, been told it can be really good, it as Roach, Rudd, skimmer Bream, Bream, Tench and carp and some good sizes too.




always had this place in mind but nether got there, it would be ideal as its only 1/2 hour drive from where I live.




thanks in advance for any info Johnboy.

Johnboy I have actually fished it and the basin is full of decent bream, they are quite difficult, evening is best. I was staying on a boat at the time and it can be very busy with tourists during the day, luckily I could wait till evening to fish. I did leave a float rod and Mitchell match reel on the boats roof over night. Needless to say it was stolen when I emerged in the morning! Mitchell match! It was a number of years ago lol.
