Harryss Hole is one of the smaller pools on site and yet one of
the most mysterious. Stocked by British Waterways in April 2004, it had 4”-6”
Carp, Crucians and Bronze Goldfish and a few ornamentals introduced. It was
used as a test site for the first fish refuge to protect from Cormorant
predation and was the only pool to have this luxury when British Waterways
abandoned the site to Cormorants later in 2004. It was thought that the fish
had still been eaten but in 2006, a pleasant surprise was in store when a
local youngster spotted a decent carp in the crystal clear waters and had a
go. His initiative was rewarded with a double figure Carp and subsequent
attempts revealed plenty of fish around 2lb plus a handful of bigger fish.
Most were identified as Crucians with a sprinkling of Perch and Mirrors.
However it now seems likely that many may be Bronze Goldfish (or Gibel Carp)
and F1 Hybrid Carp. Not the easiest but maybe the most interesting pool. Harryss Hole is less than an acre and has 20 purpose made pegs
and car-parking adjacent to the pool. |
