The fish are reared in earth ponds and lakes on our cefas registered site. They are fed a diet of pellets and grain, which provides them with a balanced healthy diet and consistent growth rates.

Both the tench and carp are from dependable growing strains - mirrors include sutton at hone, dinks & redmire. Carp have consistently grown at 5lbs a year and the tench have reached 1lb at 3 summers.

Health checking is carried out by both the Environment Agency and independant fish biologists.

We will always inform you whether fish are farm reared or harvested from natural stocks, you are more than welcome to accompany us whenever we are harvesting.
