heaton park- manchester

[james w]

anybody ever fished it lately?

i fancy giving it a bash but last time i was there it was full of muppets just throwing leads about and trying to play tunes on their bite alarms


also-

dixon green-farnworth

i nipped up there today to see what it was like and got talking to a few locals and they said most of the carp had died

how true this was i dont know

[carp junkie]

better places in the area to fish mate

[james w]

i know mate just fancied fishing there again

i go on a small unknown pond near me quite alot

[richk]

Not fished it for years mate but had a walk round a while back and its teeming with Scrotes so I would give it a miss unless theres 2 or 3 of you going.

[coops38]

there's not many unknown water's in swinton unless you mean the rat pond or the cow pond as i was from clifton oH for got deans pond or the dam

[daveabbott]

Both dixon and heaton are places i would advice you to avoid mate, they get rough and have been known for having idiots and tackle thefts ect ect

If you have transport theres alot of other places

second what daves saying about dixon, stay clear full of scallys, like others say better places to fish
