By far the smallest of the Alvechurch Fisheries waters, Harry's Pool has always been used as a children's starter pool having only nine pegs and being about five feet deep throughout with a flat even bottom which makes it easy to fish.

All the pegs on Harry's have been replaced, the bottom cleared of silt and the pool refilled and stocked with a mix of smaller fish including commons, mirrors and koi carp averaging 3lbs to 4lbs but running to 7lbs; some brown fantail goldfish to about 1lb which are interesting to catch; tench to about 2lbs 8oz and roach, rudd and perch around the 8oz mark.

Because of its size and depth, Harry's is both a waggler and pole water which will appeal to younger anglers taking up the sport who want experience of catching plenty of fish.

It is also used by Alvechurch Fisheries staff for tuition and as a practice pool for inexperienced anglers.

Surrounded by trees and shrubs, Harry's has always been an attractive little water which has been further enhanced by the recent restoration programme.
