Fishing Guidelines

Ensuring a fair and responsible fishing environment, Smithpool Lake requires anglers to fish from designated pegs only. The use of barbless hooks is mandatory, and floating or live baits, as well as uncooked nuts or seeds, are prohibited. When targeting carp and pike, back leads should be utilised, paired with a suitable landing net to handle your catch.

Fish Species

Carp and pike populate the waters of Smithpool Lake, providing anglers with the opportunity to pursue these robust species. Pike fishing must be conducted with a minimum of 12lb line and 20lb wire trace, adding an extra layer of challenge. As always, practicing catch and release helps maintain the lake's thriving fish population.
