Here is an interesting fishery which offers some good bream fishing as well as the usual carp, tench, roach, rudd and perch. Owner Eddie Whitehead has also kept away from the match scene which means that there is nearly always swims available, even for the angler who cannot get up in the morning. There are 34 swims available, all within easy walking distance from the ample car park. The usual rules about barbless hooks and no keepnets are in operation The only bait bans are on boilies and hemp seed. Limited groundbait is allowed but must only be introduced in small quantities and preferably in a feeder. The fishery is open during daylight hours and operates throughout the year, although it was closed  for Jan and Feb during 99. This may happen in the future as they are finding, like many other fisheries that the first 2 months of the year are very quiet. This does ensure that at least the banks get a rest. There are some very big fish with carp in excess of 20lb. All types are stocked. The best bream to date weighed 7.4.0. Tench in the 4 to 5lb category plus some big perch between 3 and 4lb plus good roach and rudd give the water a good all round stock. All methods work, rod and line with either meat or feeder and the pole. Don't be too light with the elastic as you never know what will take the bait. For the carp traditional baits such as bread, meat and paste baits, corn or maybe a good sized worm will often do the trick. Charges.£5.00 per day With a reduction in the week for OAP,s to £3.00. Juniors are  on a reduced fee. Location. The fishery is close to the village of Napton. From Rugby take the A426 out through Dunchurch and head for Southam There is a left turn for Broadwell and Napton which goes across country to link up with the A425, Southam to Daventry rd. This is at a cross roads junction by the Kings Head pub. Go straight over and go up the hill towards Napton At the top of the hill take a left for Priors Marston. The fishery is clearly visible on the right hand side within a few hundred yards of this junction. Grid Ref4761 on Landranger 15
