Default New forest.. avon springs

Having a week at Sandyballs in the new forest (this isnt a medical condition, but a holiday park...honest) while lm there planning a trip to rockbourne which lve fished before, Avon springs isnt that far, but never fished there, is it worth a trip?

No but heard a fair bit about it.

If you are willing to drive a little try Rockbourne fishery

http://www.rockbournetroutfishery.co.uk/

in Fordingbridge. Ive been there twice now and it's stunningly beautiful. Six lakes, restocked every morning, nice owners and not too pricey - about 50 quid all day for five fish and 20 quid for an evening and two fish. prices in between for all tastes. Can hire rids too for fifteen quid (Grays), and kids under sixteen are FREE! I have three boys (one daughter too, but she hasnt been) and they had a ball.

No food there, just a coke machine so go prepared. You can buy flies though.

just a quick one, if you catch 5 fish in the first hour , do you have to pay another £ 50 to carry on fishing ?
