Winterley Pool. Wheelock, near sandbach cheshire.
6-8 acre lake in two halves, seperated by island chanels.
About 4 feet deep at best, snag margins 2 feet.
Plagued by large swan population, at least 50 of them! They will eat every bait thrown into less than 3 feet of water.
Fishing from one side only. Casting to snags/ bushes on the "Island" 40 -60yards away. Stocked with doubles and the odd twenty. Upper 20,s claimed??
Also a seperate "Match lake" of 2 -3 acres, from memory it is a lake surrounding a large island area with short casts of 20 yards to the island. Stocked with carp mainly doubles.
Moderate rating. Was £!5 for 24 hours?
From J17 M6, follow wheelock signs. Lake fronts onto the main road.
Toilet in farm yard last time I went, (5 years ago)
