The latest of the Woods Farm Fishery waters, the spring-fed Drawbridge Pool is named after the pub which is just a short walk from the bankside where lunches, snacks and drinks are available for anglers wanting to take a break from fishing.

Opened at the beginning of 2014, Drawbridge Pool is currently being allowed to mature and has about 50 sturdy purpose-built pegs.

Developed primarily for match anglers but equally appealing to pleasure fishermen, Drawbridge Pool has been stocked since being dug with a mix of common, mirror and F1 carp and silver fish which have been left to grow on.

Already a popular match venue with nets of between 50lbs and 60lbs being regularly taken in winter, anglers are reporting catches of carp around the 6lb to 7lb mark with some anglers saying they have been broken by much bigger fish.

Drawbridge is a large water by Woods Farm standards and has a total of six islands and a penninsula, which gives plenty of features to fish to.

With bowl shaped sides, it has a fairly even bottom which runs between five and six feet deep.
