Armitage Vale Lodge (Radcliffe Angling Society)

Armitage Vale Lodge (Radcliffe Angling Society) is a stillwater venue in Greater Manchester. Access is typically via club membership or controlled permits; confirm permission and rules before fishing. A good approach is to start by plumbing the swim and locating any features (shelves, reeds, islands or margins), then feed little‑and‑often to build bites without overfeeding. On calmer days, float tactics can be effective; when wind or tow picks up, a light feeder approach helps keep a consistent presentation. Reported species include Crucian Carp, Roach, Perch, Tench, Bream, Rudd, Pike, Carp. Fish patrol routes change with weather and pressure, so stay observant and be prepared to rotate between open water and margins. Please follow fish‑care best practice (unhooking mat, suitable landing net, sensible tackle) and check any bait/hook/keepnet restrictions on arrival. The club page states this is members‑only as voted at the November 2025 AGM.
