Commonwood Fishery, Buck Road, Holt, Wrexham, UK
Map
Information
Commonwood Fishery is a water for everyone venue.
Our latest addition to the fishery is an intimate pool that holds not only a good selection of carp but also a fantastic head of catfish. Which currently run to 62lbs, However, these fish have been growing fast since their stocking so who knows how big they’ll get. This pool has only one double peg and booking is highly recommended.
On arrival, you will find a large car park, our Lodge Cafe and on-site Commonwood Tackle Shop.
The lodge is open 8 am – 5 pm every day offers a great social area for anglers to relax combined with a pleasant cafe serving hot and cold drinks and snacks. Free wi-fi is also available in the Cafe. Our tackle shop has a great range of tackle, bait and gear from many of the major brands.
