bigsexydoug   10 #6 Posted May 11, 2007 not many free ones im afraid unless you count the rivers and canals etc and they may be part of a club, marshalls pond at riverlin is fishing well, go past the admiral rodney and turn left .  also another pond that way i cant remember the name, heading towards the admiral rodney take the first left after the wisewood inn, its part of the old canal .  there is another one out in dungerowrth/dungworth thats got some nice bream around 5lb in, all these fisheries cost though about a fiver for the day  i know pleanty more but the best fisheries all cost and are around the donny area.

matsalleh   10 #8 Posted May 11, 2007 Hillsborough park is free,some large carp,tench,plenty of roach and tench.Do not go in the school holidays.The one at Rivelin is earmarked by the council for a nature reserve with no fishing.Don't know if and when it will happen though. Crookes Valley is free,but deeper than the Mariana trench. http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/index.asp?pgid=19435 Wiremill is now pay.

bigsexydoug   10 #12 Posted May 11, 2007 thought hillsborough park got all the carp taken out about 2 years ago ? i maybe wrong but i read a story about something like that.  there were 7-8 around the 28lb mark if i remember right.  its got a horrible amount of leaves etc on the pond floor though, might be tough fishing but go for it , let us know how you get on.  you after big carp or coarse carp mate i may be able to help you some more if i know what type of fishermna you are . i know loads of places, some amazing places too .  my record is a 24lb common carp on the pole ;-D from a very unknown fishery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
