Messingham Sands

This is the North’s premiere fishing venue. Covering an extensive 56 acres, the superb fishing is set in beautiful surroundings and caters for all types of angler from top flight match men to the dedicated club match angler, pleasure anglers of all abilities and specimen anglers alike who can target a variety of species.

The Fishery has been established for over 30 years. Our motto is “Run by Anglers for Anglers” and this is reflected in the quality of the fishing, the room between pegs (particularly on the match waters) and the sensible use of rules which both protect and encourage high standards throughout.

The site includes two Syndicate Lakes catering for both specimen and all round anglers. Both can enjoy the relative seclusion offered by syndicate fishing. The Syndicate Lakes, known as Lenny's Lake and Ralph's Pool both offer excellent mixed fishing, containing good sized fish of a number of different species although the Carp and Catfish fishing appears to be the attraction for the vast majority of members. Both lakes offer excellent all year round sport.
