The Sailing Club area offers accessible fishing with easy back casting. The shallow bay in the picture above has a gravel bed which is where the majority of the resident minnows come to spawn. This bay will disappear completely when the water level lowers.

Although the area is quite shallow when the water levels are very low you will be casing into very deep water, as can be seen in the drought picture below. This is one of the reasons why there is a no wading rule at Errwood.

Fishing here is quite consistent and there are a lot less under water obstacles than the Tower Bank.
