Fishery Information

If you are in Devon then you should check out Lower Slade which can be found in the lovely rolling hills of Ilfracombe. It is 6 acres in size and only has 20 swims which means it’s never going to get overcrowded.

It is a long, narrow shaped lake that has a mix of all different species. This means it will suit the pleasure angler, but it also has big carp to 27lb so it also suits specimen fishermen as well,

If it’s pike you are after then this could be the venue for you as these have been caught up to 27lb.

Try the dam end of the lake for the pike as there’s lots of weed down there where they like to hang out.

What size do the fish go to?

  • Carp to 27lb
  • Bream to 8lb
  • Perch to 4lb
