John Player Lodge – Rochdale & District A.S. (New)

John Player Lodge is a club water in Greater Manchester. It’s a mixed coarse venue that suits float, feeder and light ledger tactics, making it ideal for both pleasure sessions and match-style fishing. Reported species include Carp, Bream, Roach, Perch, Tench, Crucian Carp, Rudd, F1’s. Facilities, pegs and parking vary by venue—stick to designated paths, use appropriate fish-care gear, and follow local rules on bait limits, keepnets and unhooking mats. Bring a range of rigs for different depths, keep disturbance low, and use accurate feeding to hold fish in front of you. For carp venues, consider safe semi-fixed leads and barbless patterns where required.
