About South View

South View Farm's coarse fishery consists of three spring fed lakes known as Willow Pool, Kingfisher Pond and Heron Pond. The fishery's six acres are set in an idyllic South Devon valley near Exeter. All the waters have regularly produced good catches since they were opened to day ticket anglers in the early 1980s. The fishery is a best kept fishery award winner. We pride ourselves on the cleanliness of our fishery. More details, and a virtual tour of the fishery.

Rules of the Fishery

We believe in maximising the enjoyment of all anglers and the health and quality of our fish. We have therefore in consultation with our regular anglers devised a set of rules for the fishery. The rules are to be adhered to strictly. A few key points to note are that barbless hooks must be used, that children under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult and that night fishing is not permitted.

Cost of a day's fishing

From May 30 2004 all day fishing (6.00am to dusk) for an adult costs £6, and fishing from 4:30pm till dusk costs £3.50. Tickets are sold on the bank. Full details of ticket prices.
