Walcot East and West on the their books are lovely long estate lakes, I took a look about 8 years ago (possibly longer) and at that time it was a single ticket that you could fish both sides it was my understanding that the fish could move between both lakes under the road bridge which divided the East from the West that leads to the estate house, they possibly have now closed this off or not? obviously as it now reads since then they have split it into two separate syndicates (still might still be fishing for the same carp if they can still move between lakes).
The East lake was all single bank fishing as was the west in the main from memory I think there may have only been a swim or two on the West side on the opposite bank near the island and bridge, the opposite bank is basically the lawns of the estate house.

Stone Arch looks great, have my name down there but who knows how long it'll take.
I joined Caerphilly angling club in the end, a couple of interesting lakes with nice looking fish if not massive.

Been a while now since I had any regular contact with anyone fishing the place used to have a few mates fishing it sometime ago I only know one angler fishing it these days, they've always been reluctant to pass on information was given a number a few years back not sure if it's even relevant these days, some nice looking fish in there touching 30's and just over I believe, there is another lake on the pits now gone syndicate as well big money though 800 a year I've heard, again a bit of a who you know rather than publicized, I know the lake it was one of the first ones dug many years ago and reputedly had 30's swimming around sometime back.
Used to be a lovely little syndicate lake I fished at Kinnersley years ago called the Vallets ran by a guy called Clive only a small acreish sized pond but well set out its a nadgery little shape with pads and small islands, he built the house then dug the lake I know he sold it a few years back might be worth the 30 minute drive from Brecon to see if its still fishable then you have the Oxbow lake at Letton Court just around the corner which did a 40 recently not an easy water but a few to go at, used to be a few carp caught in the Wye at Glasbury and Hay.

Have a look at Stone Arch fisheries mate. Bit of a trek for me but I have been tempted to join as some nice looking lakes and lovely dark scaly fish

Afternoon mate,
Just been reading the South Wales syndicate thread. I'm based in Brecon but from the south east of England so don't know my arse from my tail.
I'm trying to find something Herefordshire way and was just wondering if the Wellington pit syndicate has some reasonable looking fish in and if so are you in a position to pass on any contact details? Struggling to find out much on the internet and don't know any local carp fisherman.
Thank you
Christian

👍 exactly my thoughts, absolutely ruined it they have in my opinion. Much better off buying an scac ticket and tackling the crowds, at least they are nice looking lakes with some nice old fish in.

Another to add to the list is Thorn syndicate in Hereford. Nice little lake with some good fish in there. Not been on there for a few years but still follow and the fish seem to be doing really well. No idea of waiting list though I'm afraid but I do know membership is up for renewal now

I personally wouldn't bother with Aspen more or a less canal style lake now, full of mud pigs pasties, easy to catch with no challenge really. Unfortunately the owner has ruined it, though he has made millions filling it in with the spoil from the gravel pits been dug in and around the water park.

South Wales doesn't really have much to offer as a carp syndicate goes in my opinion.
The Birch - Nice syndicate but to many members.
Lamby - Not secure
The Wharf - Definitely not my cup of tea but might be yours, Urban?
Llyn cae ty nant - Well run but small, worth a season but not a long term syndicate.
Lydney Platform 2 - Worth looking in to, I have my name on the waiting list but I don't think it's going to be somewhere long term personally.
The Cotswold waterpark is probably your best bet, Horseshoe is definitely worth a season or 2 but they are not currently taking on any new members but will probably shortly.
Carpathia is a water I want to get on but waiting list is closed.

Would it be possible to PM details too please? Also in South Wales and struggling for somewhere to get my name down. Fished The Birch and have been traveling up to Horseshoe lately which I love but having to think well ahead with the size of waiting lists these days
