We stock a variety of fishing baits to suit different angling techniques and conditions. Below, you'll find an overview of each bait and how it can be used to improve your success on our fishing lakes.

Homemade Bollies

Pellets

Compressed bait used as loose feed to attract and hold fish.

Particles

Natural baits such as sweetcorn, hemp and tiger nuts that mimic a carp's natural diet.

Pop Ups

Hard, round baits that slowly release attractants over time.

Paste Baits

Mouldable baits shaped around the hook that dissolve quickly, releasing scent into the water.

Pre-Made Carp Bait Mixes

Ready-to-use blends of pellets, particles, ground bait and attractants for drawing carp into your swim.

So, whether you need bait, nets, or scenic fishing lakes with spacious swims, our angling facilities help ensure you have everything you need to enjoy a peaceful fishing session in any of our lakes in Ashford.
