Sparham Square Meadow Lake
Despite being only eight years old this 7 acre gravel pit has a surprisingly mature look about it being surrounded by mature hedgerows and coppices on two banks and the river along one side. Fish stocks are still fairly low, however there are double figure pike, lots of perch, a few roach and tench to specimen sizes. Season permits that also give access to Sparham Pools are available exclusively to NACA members. Day tickets can also be acquired in advance.
Seasons runs 1st April to 31st Dec inclusive. Pike fishing is limited to season permit holders only.
