tomt310 0 #1 Posted June 22, 2020 Morning, just joined the forum to try and get a bot of advice. I have a 6 year old son who is obsessed with fishing. The last few summers he has been able to go sea fishing for Mackerel & Pollack and has caught the bug. This year it doesn't look like he will be able to do so & is asking me non-stop if we can go near home. We have spinning gear, I know we would need to buy a few other bits & a rod licence, but would anyone be able to recommend anywhere good to take him for a first go at coarse fishing? Preferable near Totley and doesn't really need to be a stocked/managed place, just somewhere with a chance of catching something for novices. Thanks.

alan p 15 #2 Posted June 22, 2020 Hello Tom You could try fishing in Millhouses Park, I have never fished there but have seen people fishing in the pond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mr Hinks 10 #3 Posted June 22, 2020 Get up to Aston park fisheries, speak to Alex, book him a lesson or two to get him on the right tack. PS if he really gets the bug he will eat all your spare cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
DaveGas 10 #4 Posted June 24, 2020 Aston Park have a small pond/lake purely for children/novices with small fish and plenty of bites to keep him occupied, as Mr Hinks says have a word with Alex he will give you all the advice you need and has a well kitted out tackle shop on site.
