Good morning everyone.
I’ve not posted on here for a couple of years and just wanted to give everyone an update.
As most of you a well aware, the fishery hasn’t been doing great this last couple of years. Not fished great, overgrown, pegs unsafe, things not finished, the algae on the water, The list is endless.
But I only have myself to blame, other businesses and family life took priority and falling out with fishing myself means that I just havnt put the time and effort into Croft fisheries.
Also the canals have been closed for a while now due to fly tippers constantly, kids smashed all the ticket office and toilets up and people pinching fish. It wasn’t sustainable for us to keep it open.
Again other things had to be a priority before any work happens down there. John also has had a lot going on, moving house and doing a full renovation.
But we have some good news….
Work will commence in the next couple of weeks down on the canals.
New ticket office and toilets, car park freshen up, overgrown trees removed, Canals cleaned out , new pegs install and most importantly a restock of fish.
We hope to get the gates open for Jan - Feb 27.
Work will also start soon on the lilly pads, trees removed, pegs sorted and major tidy up along with Huyton 1 and 2.
Again I apologise for the fishery being neglected, but we will bounce back in 2027.
A massive thanks to everyone that still supports us.
And a big thanks to our baliff Chris Wane who gives up his time tidying up etc.
Keep posted guys. We will be back 🎣
Andy, Kirsty and John x
