Getting There: Leave Tavistock on the B3362 heading towards Lamerton and Milton Abbot. As you leave the built up area you will see a turning to the left signposted Mill Hill and Milemead Fisheries. Follow this lane for approx. one mile. As you dip down into the valley, the fishery is on the right before the bridge and Mill Hill quarry.

Milemead Fisheries consists of three lakes of about 2 acres each situated in an attractive valley only one mile from Tavistock. Two of the lakes are used for coarse fishing and the third is for trout fishing. A smaller body of water, known as The Canal, is also available for coarse fishing.

Carp Lake: A well established coarse fishing lake, stocked with common, mirror and ghost carp [to 20lb], roach, tench and bream. Most of the usual waggler and leger tactics work well with maggot, corn and bread being the favoured baits. Floating baits work well in the warmer months. Catches of 100lb are common with 200lb bags taken every year.

Match Lake: This coarse fishing lake is well stocked with small carp, bream, tench, raoch, rudd and crucians. Open matches are held throughout the year on alternate Sundays along with summer evening matches held on Thursday evenings between May and August. The lake consists of 30 well spaced pegs and is available for match bookings. Although constructed with the match angler in mind, this lake is also ideal for pleasure anglers of all abilities.

Trout Lake: This spring fed lake is aimed at the discerning fly fisherman who enjoys challenging sport fishing for rainbow, brown and blue trout. The lake is stocked regularly with fish from 1lb 8oz to 10lb+. Numbers are restricted to 10 anglers at any time so it may be worth calling ahead to confirm availability. Fly fishing tuition can be arranged.
