Hello

 

Just been through Hillsborough Park and saw people fishing. I

 

I never realised you could fish there! lol.

 

Was wondering what people thought of it, what type of fish are in there, size and any comments on fishing it??

 

Thanks

yeah always been able to fish there, living in hillsborough has always been good for fishing spots, could have a cracking day out fishing the ponds through riverlin, hillsborough park used to be hard to catch sometimes during the summer as it was over fished, don't know what it's like now, not fished it from being a kid, might be worth a go though, bring back some happy memory's
