Again this is another stunning water which is run by
Bolton Anglers and this venue is only a stones throw from the Farm
Lodge which is an added bonus because if ones not fishing to well
you can always pop over to the other then your sure to catch! The
venue holds some fantastic specimen fish such as carp and pike, they
are other species housed in this venue like roach, perch, tench
and bream however many people tend to fish for pike on this water.
Hot Fishing Spots:
Fishing can be very good all round this venue
however I tend to fish from where the picture was taken (left above)
as this is a really good place for pike which again I fish for when
on this venue, the pike I believe go up to 28lb, carp 25+ and has
some very nice bream stocked as well.
Best Baits:
When fishing for pike I would recommend you used
either Sardine, Smelt, Lamprey or Mackerel tail, using any of the
said baits can be very productive on this water. For other species
try feeders for the bream, maggot, caster, worm and bread for all
other types of fish, carp will take boilies and small PVA bags but
again don't over do it.
Disability Access:
Disability access is not to dandy and when wet can
be very muddy
Car Parking:
There is ample car parking on Churchill Drive,
Little Lever, fishermen tend to leave cars on the roadside.
Where to find Dingle Lodge:
The Dingle can be found using your Manchester A-Z on
page 48 grid reference C4 just follow the road and you will see a
sign on the right hand side saying public foot path, park your car
anywhere round here and just walk over the fields.
The all important prices. Dingle Lodge comes under rule of Bolton anglers and
cost £20.00 per year and is worth every penny, go on get yourself
over here and give it a try.
