You could always try Hartney Wintney Club, they have Firgrove Manor (Near Cash's House) and they have the Quary oposite Tri-lakes, plus a few others, all of them have carp in, not sure what size, but they lakes are mostly fished by pleasure anglers, so they won't be busy.

Crowsport lake behind the Crooked Billet pub??? Real name Holme Grange, try there Rich - just out the back of crowthorne, sell tickets in Crowsport in Crowthorne, get there early though else it'll be busy and you might want to check for matches in advance if you're going on a Sunday

Rich,
Anglings not free mate, what are are you looking for?
You don't have any tickets at the moment, so your only option to take your friend fishing is day-ticket!!!!!

that is why i am posting on a day ticket forum
lol
i am hoping to spend around £5 for two ods for a day not £15 for two rods at trilakes and stupid rules.
cheers

Try the Blue Pool for lots of doubles or the Match Lake next door for smaller carp with the occasionl double.Tickets 6 quid for 2 rods from Reading Angling Centre.Sensible rules and nice surroundings

Cash!!!
Expensive . . .
NOT easy . . .
And hardly the 'friendliest' place in Yateley!!!

Take a spin into the New Forest - Hordle Lakes - about 1 1/4hr drive and as good as a guaranteed catch as it gets.

Oh by the way - have a good time /images/forum/icons/wink.gif

Holme grange all the way if you want to get him some carp, or you could take him floatfishing on the village green in yateley - bite a chuck from rudd gudgeon and the odd small carp.

Forget the boilies at Tri-Lakes and just take an uncut loaf of bread for all day fun. Watch the 'carp boys' squirm as you land carp after carp on freelined flake........Love it!

i may go tommorow on holme grange with bread on the top and boilies on the bottom and he can use his float rod for little carp and silvers. people who have fished holme grange as i haven't been for ages what are the best boilies to use on there from experience and where are the best spots to go for the bigger carp and what mwethods work best
cheers

I went down for a look and decided it was much too crowded for me. Talked the boss in to letting me have a whole day out instead.
