Bransford Game Fisheries

Pools

Bransford Game Fisheries features three picturesque pools offering stunning views of the Teme Valley. The Island Pool operates as a catch and release area and is spring-fed, ensuring clear, pure water. Meanwhile, the Lodge and Walton Pools are supplied by a subterranean reservoir of Malvern Spring Water, maintaining excellent water quality. These pools can reach depths of up to 25 feet, providing ample space for anglers.

Stocking and Fish

The fisheries are regularly stocked with Shasta Rainbow Trout from Bibury Trout Farm, known for their strong fighting spirit. The average trout weighs just over 2 lbs, with the record catch reaching 18 lbs 4 oz. In addition to Rainbow Trout, the Lodge and Walton Pools host a significant number of Brown Trout, ranging between 3 lbs and 6 lbs. It's important to return these Brown Trout if you hook them.

Restroom facilities are available, including a disabled toilet accessible via the office. Casting platforms are wheelchair accessible, and a fridge is provided to store your catch.
