Muirbeck is now a syndicate water, to enquire about becoming a syndicate member please email info@broomfisheries.co.uk
Muirbeck was created in June 2019 by connecting two of our oldest and most well-established lakes with 12 pegs.
March 2022 the Canal was also joined to the specimen water giving a total of 20 pegs.
With the water becoming very popular with some very competent anglers and in an attempt to create a venue that is pleasurable to fish with a measured amount of anglers we have decided to convert Muirbeck into a syndicate water, having made a significant investment in large carp recently from the famous VS Fisheries where no fewer than eight carp were purchased six in the C6 range – 2019 Sovereign Year Class and a further two in the C7 range – 2018 Sovereign Year Class all of which were mirrors renowned for their bloodlines and the ability to grow quickly.
Applications will be made through an App, details will be added here and on Facebook in the coming days.
