Whitemoor Lakes

The Committee is pleased to let you know that the Club has secured winter fishing at Whitemoor Lakes. The new membership book will carry details and a map and will advise:

“This day ticket commercial fishery is located south of Holt Heath and north-east of the Broomhill Crossroads.

Directions:

• Coming from Wimborne, travel along Colehill Lane northeast through Broomhill to the crossroads with Hart’s Lane and Pilford Heath Road. Continue straight over and the fishery is in approximately 0.6 mile on the right.

• From the north, travelling on the Holt Road, turn south at the staggered crossroads at the west edge of Holt Heath signposted Broomhill, Colehill and Wimborne Minster. The fishery is in approximately 0.8mile and is on the left.

• The entrance is well signed with a setback wooden fence and gate.

The Club has an arrangement which allows any Club member, with a fishing membership, to fish for free in the winter months between the 1st October and the 31st March. It also enables an angler to fish the night ticket offered for half price during this period.  [As the Club has just agreed this arrangement the first time it will be available at no cost to WDAC members is on the 1st January 2026].

Facilities:

• The site has five lakes, and all are well stocked. Each lake has associated parking close to it. The lakes contain a wide variety of coarse fish. [Please visit the Fishery’s website for further details].

• As there are toilet facilities, it is on the level with constructed platforms and has good parking facilities it is capable of providing fishing for the less able.

The daylight hours during which the fishery is open varies and anglers will need to check accordingly.

Fishery Rules:

The rules that apply are those of the Fishery, please see the Whitemoor Lakes website and the information on site. There are no different WDAC rules, but you will be required to show your membership book on arrival. The main Fishery rules are:

• No keepnets.

• Unhooking mats must be used.

• Barbless hooks only.

• No fixed rigs.

• Fish from the platforms on marked swims only.

• Dogs must be kept on a short leash at all times.

• No moving between lakes to fish.

• Members will be unable to use a lake if there is a match being fished on it.

• Do not leave any rubbish on the bank

And this is the new map which illustrates this water which you will find in the 2026 Membership Book.
