Buckshole Reservoir

This water is situated in Alexandra Park in Hastings, East Sussex. The water is around 4 acres and has depths down to 16 feet.

Since 2003 the reservoir has seen an introduction of some fast growing carp that have really put the weight on with a large number of these now being in excess of 20lbs with several having exceeded the magical 30lb mark. In total we have stocked 82 carp over a 15 year period with them all showing some fantastic growth rates. Not wanting to put our feet up and leave it at that we have stockings arranged for the next two years (2016/17 & 2017/18) to further improve the water.

The initial stockings were with Marc Simmonds fish with the later stockings being with fish from the guys at VS fisheries. The VS stockings included some stunning scaley mirrors in addition to some cracking commons, two of these are already pushing 30lbs!!
