One of the most popular privately-owned still water coarse fisheries in East Anglia, Barford Lakes are about 7 miles West of Norwich, in Norfolk. The fishery offers a range of sport to suit pleasure, match and intermediate carp anglers and has been featured in many angling magazines and on 'Sky' Television's 'Tight Lines' programme and Discovery's 'Carp Crew 2'.
Pleasure catches of more than 100lbs are common and some have been known to break the 200lb mark.
There are four lakes at the main Barford Lakes Complex (which includes the Training Lake) and the other three venues are all located nearby.
The Pleasure Lake is based at the main Barford Lakes complex.
It is an attractive 2 and a half acre lake with mature bank planting offering good cover and privacy.
The Top Lake is at our main Barford Lakes complex.
The Match Lake is at our main Barford Lakes complex and is used solely for competitive match fishing.

It is a small lake with 6 pegs on one side and one wide double swim at one end. Primarily used as a training venue for demonstrating basic angling techniques to new anglers, this lake is also available to fish on a general day ticket, but anglers learning to fish can buy a ticket for just this lake for a nominal fee of £2.50.
