Fishing at Durleigh

Durleigh Reservoir is ideal for anglers seeking to catch carp, pike, bream and roach.


About Durleigh Reservoir

A 100lb+ net is not uncommon at the reservoir, with some carp weighing more than 36lb. There is also the opportunity to catch between 10 and 20 doubles in the right conditions.

The site is known as superb for carp fishing with a lot of common carp and a good number of mirror carp. Pikes are also caught often.

The site is well-regarded for its bream fishing. Although most bream fall into the 2lb to 5lb range, there are many larger specimens with 7lb and 8lb fish landed regularly.

There is also an abundance of skimmers and vast shoals of roach which can make up bags of 50lb to 80lb on their own.
