Greenfields Carp Fishery

Home for our wildlife - Proud to be Carbon Negative

Welcome To Greenfields

Greenfields Carp Fishery is little known and we like it that way, so membership is compulsory so as to ascertain "fishing competence and fishing etiquette" as well as to ensure that our few rules are being observed.

Tucked down a country lane just 1/2 mile from the many homes of Wokingham is a small complex of 5 fishing ponds known mostly to the locals since before 1964. A total water area in excess of 11/2 acres with an average depth of around 1 to 11/2 metres - perfect for carp. Ponds 2 to 5 are linked so the fish have the freedom to roam. We have tried to keep the fishery as natural as possible with unkempt foliage so as to give more of a feel of a river bank and giving plenty of camouflage from the fish sight lines.

Although primarily a fishery, the wildlife take priority with most of the coots, moorhens and ducks having hatched here. Visiting us on a daily basis are the herons, terns, kingfishers, woodpeckers and other feathered friends. Deers sleep locally and will use the ponds as a convenient watering hole. Beautiful butterflies and dragon fliies are amongst the many insect varieties and by chance you may even see a harmless water or grass snake.
 

When it is time to leave we ask that you take nothing away with you other than what you brought and a satisfied smile. In turn leave nothing behind other than in the bins provided.
