Bransford Game Fisheries

Bransford Game Fisheries comprise three picturesque pools, with superb views down the Teme valley. The Island Pool - the Catch and Release Pool, is Spring-fed, whilst the Lodge and Walton Pools are replenished from a subterranean reservoir of Malvern Spring Water. The presence of large numbers of Crayfish is proof of the purity of the water in all three pools.

Stocking - the pools are stocked on a regular basis with Shasta Rainbow Trout from Bibury Trout Farm. These fish are renowned for their fighting qualities. Average weight is just over 2 lbs. The record to date is 20lbs 8ozs. There are considerable numbers of Brown Trout in the Lodge and Walton Pools, between 3 lbs and 6 lbs in weight. These must be returned if hooked.

Facilities - Ladies and Gents toilets. There is an Anglers Rest Room with free tea and coffee on a self service basis. There is also a microwave, T.V. and barbecue for the convenience of anglers.

General - these well established pools support a huge range of insects, Dragonflies, Damsel Flies, Hawthorn, Sedge, Stone flies etc., and there has been a regular hatch of May flies since 2001.

The Fishery was featured on the front page of Trout Fisherman in February 1999, together with a very complimentary write up and account of the ancillary activities, including the breeding of Jungle Fowl, the cock hackle feathers of which are much sought after by fly tyers internationally.

Fly tying equipment is available for sale or hire. Corporate days are a speciality.
