Alderwood Fishery

About Alderwood Fishery

Alderwood Fishery is a purpose-built coarse fishing venue at Moss, close to Askern and Doncaster in South Yorkshire. The fishery was designed with match and pleasure anglers in mind and offers structured fishing with defined shelves, features and island targets rather than a large open natural water. Published information describes a healthy mixed stock including carp, roach, tench and skimmers, with carp reported around the 20lb mark. This makes Alderwood suitable both for anglers looking for regular mixed-coarse action and those hoping to connect with one of the venue's larger carp. Day tickets are available and night fishing is also reported to be permitted, giving local anglers the option of longer sessions as well as straightforward daytime pleasure fishing. The water has previously been described as having generously spaced pegs, allowing anglers room to work different lines and methods without feeling crowded. Method feeder, pellet waggler and pole approaches have all been associated with the venue, particularly when targeting carp, tench and skimmers. Alderwood is conveniently positioned for anglers searching for fishing near Doncaster, Askern, Moss and the surrounding South Yorkshire area. It does not currently appear to operate a dedicated official website, so anglers should use the published telephone contact or look for the latest Alderwood Fishery social-media information before travelling. Details such as ticket prices, opening arrangements, night-fishing availability, fish stocks and rules can change, and should therefore be confirmed directly with the fishery before a visit.
