Thornton is a 76-acre reservoir near Markfield with a proper fly-fishing history, but the village website lists the fishery as closed and a return to fishing isn't confirmed.

Birmingham and Fazeley Canal

Tamworth · 1 lakes on site

A proper canal venue around Dog Lane, Amington, with fishing forming part of the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal’s recreational use. Expect towpath-style canal angling rather than a bookable commercial fishery, and check local permit and signage details before setting up.

Kingsbury packs 12 fishing lakes and over 125 acres of water into a 620-acre country park, with proper carp potential and plenty for mixed-coarse anglers.

Foremark Reservoir

Melbourne · 1 lakes on site

Foremark is a proper big reservoir at approximately 230 acres, with a trout-fishing background and public facilities on site. Fishing now needs separate BMAA approval, though the club says its Foremark places are full — so this isn’t a turn-up-and-buy-a-ticket job.
