Situated on the western outskirts
of Buckingham, this attractive stretch
of the upper Great Ouse is a new
addition to the VAC fishery portfolio.
Located at the back of Tingewick
Industrial Park, you will need to park
sensibly on the access roads as access
is through a wooded area at the top end
of the estate.
Around 500 yards in length, the
fishery is very overgrown with
nearby overhead power lines making
this a NO POLES fishery. As it's
narrow flowing water this is hardly
a problem as the water lends itself
to traditional running water tactics
such as centrepin reels and stick
floats.
In places fallen trees provide handsome
looking snags for large perch, chub and
pike, all known to inhabit this stretch.
The main species are roach and dace and
these are abundant in smaller sizes up
to around 8oz, easily caught trotting
maggots down the middle in around 4ft of
water.
The banks are quite high
with nettles during the summer and autumn
so it is suggested that members take
something to clear themselves a swim.
During early 2008 working parties
will be undertaken to create more
comfortable swims.
Traditional close season rules
apply.
Let us know how you get
on. |
