Belfry Coarse Fishery
Belfry Fishery is located on a quiet rural farm just off of the A22 near Hailsham.
The fishery consists of a single fishable lake which is about one acre in size.
The lake contains roach and rudd to 2lb, tench to 3lb, crucian carp, some large perch
to 4lb+ and some beautiful carp upto 25lb+.
There are two lakes. Belfry Pond is located on the edge of the first field.
The fishery owner says recommended baits are natural baits or luncheon meat.
Tiger nuts aren't allowed.
All rubbish must be taken home.
There are 2 portaloos on site.
Fishe.net fished Belfry Fishery June 2018
We had a great day, we had success landing carp by free lining bread on the surface,
along with Tiger Nut flavoured boilies on the bottom. The owner mentioned that Mussels
are currently working well. Parking is right next to the lake and there is a portable
toilet next to the large lake.
Many thanks to the fishery owners.

Directions
Address: Hellingly, Hailsham, BN27 4BP
Take the A22 to just north west of Hailsham until you reach the Boship roundabout between Lower Dicker
and Horsebridge. The Boship roundabout is a large roundabout that has services including Burger King,
petrol station, travel lodge, tourist information. Take the exit towards Horam, this exit will lead you
past the services entrance. Follow the road for about quarter of a mile. The entrance to Belfry fishery
is on the left hand side through a gate in the hedge. The gate has a white board saying Belfry Fishery.
The entrance is opposite a large services signpost (which you will only see the back of when travelling
from the Boship roundabout).
If you pass this sign you have just passed the entrance, if you reach a right hand turning for Horsebridge
then you have gone to far.
Catch Report
"pellet to great success"
"Been fishing over the winter using a feeder rod with pressed method feeder with soaked micro carp
pellets with scopex additive and 8 mm bettaine pellet to great success"
"biggest weighed in at 15 06oz"
"Been up Belfry a few times this month had great success on main line shelf life monster crab boilies
tipped off with fake sweet corn and had 25 fish in a 12 hour session biggest weighed in at 15 06oz"
"Beautiful Lake"
"Beautiful Lake, lovely surroundings, the Bailiff is great, very friendly but not on top of you. We had a
slow morning but then started crusting and caught several 5-6 lb carp and a couple of 10+lb. There is a portaloo
but not great for the ladies!!"
