Today, Friday 21st September, I came to Chigboro Fishery. I had planned it for a week, arranged to bring my wife, and drivena hundred miles round trip to get there. When i arrived, the car park was full. I was expecting a pleasant quiet days fishing. instead, I didn’t stay for more than half an hour! my day has been pretty well ruined by your failure to let anyone know that you had a special day arranged. There were over forty people on the main Fly-fishing lake. I tried to fish for a short while, but the noise and the sense of being crowded in was too much. I t will be some time before I shall return to your fisheries and I will find it hard to recommend it to anyone else. I can be contacted on 01473 403554, 07749166864. Rick Rouse
a tad unfortunate im sure, im a newcomer to the sport but have always enjoyed my time there, after a good days sport and recording my bag I left my rod by the hut and it was stored for me, I found the owners very freindly and helpful
man who phones first will always have a swim and a fish, man who dont phone will never know
I fish at chigboro at least twice a month and has always produced good fishing with the staff always available with advise and help. Top Quality for the area.
HI does anyone know if chigboro carp fisheries is still open? i can,t get any response from the telephone number and a friend said he thought they might be in receivership|
