Permanently fixed leads are not allowed and unhooking mats should always be used for any fish – RIGS WILL BE CHECKED BY OUR BAILIFFS.
You are not allowed to use a spomb to introduce bait unless it is used in conjunction with a ‘spomb float’ attachment (if you’ve haven’t got one with you, they can be purchased from the fishery). This is to help prevent lost/cracked off spombs sinking to the lake bed and causing snags.
Spodding maggots is no longer allowed. They can only be used as hook baits, in PVA bags or in feeders. As a general rule you shouldn’t be using more than around 4 pints per day.

Wading is not allowed, except when aiding in safe netting or release of fish, in shallow water areas. Please do not wade on any of our waters to position baits. Always put your own safety first when returning fish.
The lakes are on private property, so you should do nothing to disturb others, make no noise and keep lights at night to a minimum.
The use of BBQ’s is permitted but they must be raised off the ground. If you use a disposable BBQ and it burns the grass you will be asked to leave the fishery.
If you double up in a swim you can only fish two rods each, with the exception of a handful of large swims dotted around the complex. If you are unsure whether you can use 2 or 3 rods each, when doubling up, please check with the bailiff.
5 Reviews on “Hunts Corner - Linear Fisheries Reviews”
Fished a night here before moving on the next day to Oxlease. It’s nice and intimate with a great chance of nicking one early, I always pop on Hunts for my first night then move on to one of the other waters.
Pegs are well spread and clean
If you are looking a nice “quieter” lake on the complex then try hunts. We go here once a year and have had a fair few out. Would reccomend
One of Linears better lakes, good head of fish with some orginals make this a great lake
Have done a fair few nights on here and caught a fair few carp. Good small water with lots of fish to go at. 10/10 for me
Have done around 25 nights on this lake, awesome tranquil place with some nice originals in. Would recommend anyone to give this place a 24hr to experience it’s magic.
