These cater for all types of angler and offer comfortable fishing all year round. Westminster has a good head of 200-plus carp with weights from 10lb to 28lb. This offers a good chance of a big fish while you enjoy good sport from the smaller carp. Fishing the margins can produce well and surface fishing can be tremendous during the warmer months. If you wish to fish overnight, then make sure you book because there is a maximum of eight anglers per night. With a decent stock of fish and a chance of a big carp, Westminster is definitely one to go for.
