Buckley Wood (Syke) – Small Pond (Rochdale Walton AS)

A smaller, shallower option on the Syke site that can fish well in colder months, offering sheltered, straightforward mixed sport. Access is managed as club fishing, so make sure you have the correct permit or ticket before setting up. Typical approaches include measured loosefeed with maggots/casters or pellets, plus a float, waggler or light feeder/ledger depending on depth and wind. Fish within venue rules, respect other water users, and take all litter home. Always check the source link for opening times, close seasons (on rivers), and any water-specific restrictions.
