STILLWATERS ALVECHURCH FISHERIES, BIRMINGHAM, WEST MIDS

Horseshoe Lake is currently the stand-out venue on this four-lake complex, with 30lb-plus bags of skimmers. To catch them try using a cage feeder loaded with groundbait, caster, pinkie and chopped worm, with maggot or a section of worm on the hook. The lake recently saw a stocking of commons and mirrors averaging 2lb mark, and these are expected to show well as the weather warms up. Contact: 0121 445 4274 Postcode: B45 8BW
