Pawlett Ponds is a well-stocked venue located between Bridgwater and Highbridge. The site features four lakes with a mix of carp, bream, roach, rudd, perch, eels and chub.

The lakes

Lakes 1, 2 & 3 offer carp to around 12lb, bream to 4lb, perch to 3lb, eels to 4lb and chub to 2lb.

Lake 1 has nine upgraded platforms, including a swim for disabled anglers, and is great for parent-and-child fishing.
Lake 2 features cut swims with grass aisleways and allows anglers to face either Lake 1 or Lake 3.
Lake 3 can be fished from the shared aisleway or from three large wooden platforms on the far bank.
