South Reservoir - April 2009

This venue has two reed lined reservoirs set in open countryside on Mersea Island, The North Reservoir is stocked mainly with carp from 6lb to 20lb along with a small number of silver fish.
The South Reservoir has only a few carp (although they are reported to be a reasonable size) with the main stock being made up of Bream, Tench, Roach and Rudd.

NOTE: The many of the swims are platforms and consequently unsuitable for bank sticks, Therefore the use of seatboxes or rod pods is recommended when fishing these swims.
