Bigwood Fisheries
Description
Complex of two course/carp fishing lakes Hi, welcome to Bigwood Fisheries on Facebook, we are a small coarse fishery approximately 5 miles east of Norwich stocking a wide variety of coarse fish in two lakes. One lake is approximately 2.5 acres and tree lined containing Roach, Rudd, Bream, Perch, Tench, Gudgeon and there are some very large Pike and carp well into double figures. The Island lake is a smaller reed lined water and contains a well stocked head of Carp into double figures, some nice Tench and a mixed bag of Roach and Rudd. The lakes themselves are formed within a large estate lake which has been stocked over the years and the true size of the fish is yet to be seen, we have Rudd to 2lb and there have been some enormous tench seen so it really has a wonderful unknown factor.

Busy day felling trees and pulling snags in the spring clean, hopefully a bit more space to throw a line out 👍 Lots of fish fizzing along the woodland bank swims 12-16 and quite a few big swirls and carp leaping clear of the water in spectacular style around the island margins. There were the usual swirls down opposite swim 1 too.
Lovely still morning at the lake, lots of fish disturbed in the margins as I walked about, I had a tub of pellets with me and there were a couple of shoals of carp at the far end which stick their heads up for the odd floating pellet, they swam right under my feet, I snapped away with the phone camera but they never do justice. The last picture was a pike rushing into a shoal of roach, the whole side of the pike breached the surface but of course I missed that. Nice to see signs of life after a long cold spell 👍🎣
Still a bit chilly at Bigwood! Ready for the big thaw.
Looks like the fish will be having a “snow day”
Beautiful morning at Bigwood, the large lake was clear of ice for any Pike hunters but the island lake had a full covering.
Three carp in an hour before the heavens opened, had I not got soaked landing two at once I'd have stayed on, the rain seemed to send them crazy, I had another whilst baiting the second rod! Great to come home to after a few weeks away working. 👍🎣
A couple from an afternoon session, phone died but I fished til dusk and had over half dozen fish with a nice common of 12lb 🎣
Couple hours on Saturday afternoon produced half a dozen carp to 10lb finally including some mirrors and a nice tench of 2 1/2lb. All ledgering with krill dumbells and Manila dumbells, at one point I had a common steaming off on both rods which got the adrenaline pumping but managed to bank both fish.
Cracking afternoon, 3 fish just over ten and the others all just under the biggest 10lb 13. All caught using the baits and rigs shown with marine pellet in the bags. 👍🎣
Hot day today at the lakes, fished through the afternoon but it was hard finding a bite then at 1700 it all came to life and I didn't want to leave! Here's a couple pics...
