BCSG Fisheries

The group currently runs three fisheries, including Korda (unavailable for fishing currently due to HS2 work) and Hindles in the Colne Valley and Dallows in the midlands. The lakes are open to all members on a limited day ticket basis or on a seasonal basis (subject to a waiting list) on payment of a modest syndicate fee..
