Getting There:
Woodpeckers is halfway along the Old Hollow in Worth, near Crawley. Look out for a Blue and Yellow sign at both sides of the bottom of our drive. The signs say Pestarrest Pest Control and Woodpeckers Coarse Fishery.

When you arrive, please stop at the bungalow at the top of the drive where signed. You'll be met by either David or Dianne who will take your payment. Once you've paid, drive on and right - down the main drive to the Car Park and once you've unloaded, walk down the track to the left which is marked MATCH. At the bottom of that track, the lakes are ahead of you, and they're all signed.

What's on Offer:
Woodpeckers Course Fishery opened to the public in 1996. Two well stocked coarse fishing lakes and two smaller fishing ponds provide some excellent sport in the heart of West Sussex.

The wide range of fish at Woodpeckers Coarse Fishery are in excellent condition, the lakes are superbly maintained and last but not least it's set in such a peaceful and tranquil location.

Baits most popular on Woodpeckers are (year round) maggots, sweetcorn, luncheon meat (especially popular), and floating baits – crust and dog biscuits – are good summer baits. Match winning weights on Woodpeckers are often in the 70lb + area.

For something a little different, fish off one of our bridge-linked islands. Ospreys is our newest lake and is now a firm favourite with a lot of our regulars. It also features an angler's shelter.

Again, a very well stocked lake with similar species to Woodpeckers, but with 40 pegs. Perch in Ospreys reach a very healthy 5 lb +, and also holding good numbers of Chub. Summer floating baits – dog biscuits and crusty bread – guarantee very good sport.

Penny's Pond:
A small, fun fishing water ideal for children.

Lots of Goldfish, Shubunkin, Golden Rudd and Carp to 3 lb plus other species – all of which respond well to maggots and bread. Penny's Pond is the oldest of our 4 lakes.
