HEYFORD FISHERY
| Constructed in 1990 this was designed for match fishing although its always
been considered slightly too wide at 15 to 16 metres. It is in the shape of an
elongated S and can house 123 anglers. Over the years it established itself as
one of the best match waters in the country, certainly suiting the top grade
Match anglers who could afford the long pole necessary to put the bait in the
far margin of rushes where the fish were. The original concept was that the
water would be very even but that is in an ideal world and unfortunately that
did not happen. Bends and the two bridge areas were very productive and of
course fish moved with the wind. But even so it was a good water and provides
good all round match fishing. They did suffer in the massive flooding in April
of 98 and many fish were lost to the River Nene which is close by. Extensive
restocking has been carried out and the fishery has been restored.
All in all a top class match fishery. Charges. Mid week day ticket
is £6. Weekend £6. Juniors/OAP's £3.50 anytime. After 1.00pm only £3.00 Most
weekends are heavily match booked so its worth ringing to check availability of
pegs. Tel 01327340002 Location. Between Daventry and Northampton the fishery is
accessible from the Nether Heyford Rd which is 1 mile South of Weedon on the
main A5 trunk Rd. Take a left at the Narrow Boat Pub. travel for about 3/4 mile
over the canal, the fishery entrance is on the left. Grid ref6559 on Landranger
