Introducing
Baston
Serpentine
The Serpentine is a seven-acre bookable day-ticket lake situated on our premium Baston Complex, north of Peterborough.
With just eight, well-spaced swims and depths down to 12-14ft, the ‘Serp’ is a lovely, intimate venue, so is all short to medium range work. The lake can get quite weedy in the summer, so finding clear areas to present baits on is a must to achieve the best results.
Originally used as a ‘stock lake’ for the other lakes on the complex, we drained the Serp down a couple of winters ago and removed all the fish, before grading them and putting the best 120 or so back in to grow on. We have since supplemented the lake with 30 more handpicked carp.
The fishery was then opened as a Syndicate, and despite very little angling pressure, it has produced some lovely carp to over 38lb.
With the Shallow Pit next door, we’ve decided to make Serpentine available on the same day-ticket booking process. The fishing on this lake perfectly compliments the Shallow Pit; The Serpentine offering the option of single swims and has a lower stock but higher average size for those anglers who prefer to wait it out for a bigger fish.
These fish are still young and hungry, so don’t be afraid to give them some bait! They have been fed with our own ‘house’ pellet for several years now, so absolutely love it!
Anglers can book on Baston Serpentine in 48-hour slots starting on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday. To book, simply add the required date to your basket using the calendar below before proceeding with the payment.
