| Re: help... Greg, have you tried Bury Hill? I've never fished there myself but a few on here fish it regularly for big pike and it's only about 30 miles from Croydon, there's also Beaver Farm which apparently contains pike to 30lb in one of its lakes - again not my area so can't vouch for it. Depending on how far you are willing to travel the Thames to the west of London has lots of pike I believe. Pretty much any natural water will hold pike, as I was told recently "where there's antelope there's lions" so if there are lots of silver fish in a river or canal near you there should be pike. Happy hunting! |

| Re: help... hi greg,i'm not an expert on the fishing around your neck of the woods but bury hill at dorking is good for the pike with the added bonus of zander in there as well |
