Drayton Reservoir Tips
Drayton Reservoir is known as one of the finest Carp match fishery locations in the UK, that is definitely not an easy title to earn. The currentmatch record stands at 6 hours with well over 400 lb. The reservoir itself is a little strange when compared to similar waters, in that it is situated right next to a main road, with a housing estate on the opposite bank (within casting distance). It is also home to the Drayton sailing club, so with that in mind it is of the up-most importance that anglers do not leave their rods unattended even with bait runners engaged as there have been hundreds of reports of rods being knocked or pulled in by boats, let alone the carp. The other noticeable thing about the reservoir is the wooden platforms from which anglers fish.
