This is a nice remote fishery consisting of two lakes owned by a local farmer. 

The Top Pond is what I will display on this page. 

The Top Pond has about 20 pegs on and the lake has two islands. 

The pegs are in need of repair and are only quite narrow. 

Due to the fishery being somewhat unknown its quiet with the exception of its "regulars". 

Three sides of the lake are tree lined and one side open and due to the situation of the fishery it can be very windy and cold. 

I have been told that the lake holds Mirror Carp, Tench, Perch, Roach and Rudd. 

The carp (even the smaller ones) give a good fight so dont fish too light. 

There are no rules as such and keep nets are allowed too. 

The lake does appear a little peggy with the pegs backing on to the bottom lake seemingly very good

The best pegs are the ones between the islands and the car corner next to the Bull rushes

Quotes I've found on other sites include :

"Had a few good days at Gillmoor fishing between the islands"

"I love this place and had 100's of carp. It is a great peaceful location and the owner is a good lad"
