The reservoir is open daily for fishing from 8.00am to dusk between the 1st. March and the 30th. November inclusive. Regrettably, owing to rising costs associated with stocking the reservoir after February 2005, it has been necessary to increase the Ticket price and reduce the daily bag limit. The Committee decided to maintain our association with our current supplier who always provides top quality, fully finned fish. Reducing the bag limit permitted a more modest increase in ticket prices. The Evening Concession has been withdrawn as it was uneconomic.

By arrangement with Mrs. J Hainsworth, Day tickets will continue to be available from Hargill House, Finghall ; telephone 01677 450245, between 8.00am and 6.00pm except Wednesdays, when the agency is closed from11.30 am. You can also buy your Environment Agency Licence during Post Office hours and, if like me you have PO Card Account, you can draw your Pension or Benefit. Please, help keep your rural Post Office open.

The reservoir is open daily for fishing from 8 am. until Dusk between 1st. March and 30th. November. (Both dates inclusive)

Regrettably, owing to increases in the costs of stocking after February 2005, it has been necessary to increase the Day Ticket prices and reduce the bag limit. N.B. - the revised limit applies to club members.

Tickets may not be available from Hargill House after 12 noon on Saturday or all day on Sunday this year. Tickets should be purchased in advance.

Evening Tickets will be available from 1st. May to 31st August inclusive - fishing from 4pm. By popular request Evening Tickets will be available from 3pm. during the month of September.

The reservoir is a shared water with the local sailing club but, for most of the time, fishing prevails. Further details of sailing times are available at Hargill House, Finghall.

Members of Felling Fly Fishing Club do not have to pay any additional fees to fish this water BUT ALL OTHER RULES APPLY. THE BAG LIMIT IS THREE FISH ON ANY ONE DAY - your attention is drawn to the Club Rule restricting to 6 (SIX) the number of fish which may be taken (from all stocked club waters) in any period of 7 (SEVEN) days. This is a maximum number and the Committee hopes that members will exercise restraint. This does not affect the number which may be caught and released.

The committee are concerned that so many anglers are not placing their catch returns in the box provided in the car park. If we do not get accurate returns we cannot get the stocking level correct.

Blue-green algae can be present at this reservoir. Please ensure the water is to your liking before purchasing your ticket, as refunds cannot be given.

The western bay of the reservoir is for the exclusive use of anglers when sailing is in progress. Anglers must keep away from the boat launching and pontoon area.

Everybody must enter and leave the reservoir grounds at the authorised entrances and keep to the paths as far as possible.

LITTER - As a matter of policy Yorkshire Water do not provide litter bins - they get over-filled or vandalised resulting in more pollution so - please TAKE YOUR LITTER HOME. This includes all discarded line, hooks and plastic beer can ties which can harm the wildlife.

Yorkshire Water reserve the right to close all or part of the reservoir or its grounds at any time for operational reasons.
