Camping & Caravan Site with Fishing Lakes Devon
Fishing at Yeatheridge Farm Caravan & Camping Park offers a peaceful and enjoyable experience for anglers of all levels in the heart of the Devonshire countryside. We offer 12 well placed swims for each lake, with easy parking at both lakes and disabled access for the top lake.
The bottom lake has a track leading to it, which is accessible by car depending on the weather or on foot. Spend some time enjoying the fishing and bring along a picnic, relaxing and watching the abundance of bird and wildlife often seen at Yeatheridge.
Our Fishing Lakes
Top Lake
The top lake is well stocked and perfectly suited to beginners and pleasure fishers.
It is stocked with a mixture of Carp, Crucians, Tench, Rudd and Bream, averaging 2lb- 4lb up to approximately 5lb.
Bottom Lake
The bottom lake is for the experienced fisherman and is more challenging lake. It was stocked in 2022 with Carp and Tench from the top lake, which would be around 3-6lb now, and we added 21 carp in January 2023 which averaged 12.8lb, with the largest topping the scales at 16.2lb.
