As with Middle Pool, the origins of Bottom Pool are again virtually unknown, believed to be natural farm ponds or ponds created over 30 years ago.
Whatever its origins, Bottom Pool is another pretty, out-of-the-way water with some interesting features at its far end.
It is an ideal water for anglers who want to get away from the thrust of things.
An ideal place to head for if you want to fish for the unknown, Bottom Pool is about two to three feet deep around the margins.
Whilst shallow at just three feet at its deepest at the inlet end, it drops to between six and seven feet in the centre by the outlet.
With carp up to 12lbs and averaging about 4lbs to 5lbs, Bottom Pool is again a mainly silver fish water with perch, tench and skimmers to about 1lb 8oz and roach and rudd to about 1lb.
There are also good heads of crucian carp which average about 1lb.
A general pleasure water, Bottom Pool is again ideal for pole or waggler with anglers tending to use quite fine tackle and techniques vary from fishing up in the water for the roach and rudd to fishing on the bottom in open water or close into the margins for patrolling fish.
Most favoured baits again tend to be caster, corn, soft hooker pellets and maggots in summer and maggots, casters and worm in winter.
