Boddington Reservoir

 Surrounded by lovely Northamptonshire countryside, Boddington Reservoir is an oasis of water, greenery and wildlife

This pleasant rural reservoir set in rolling Northamptonshire countryside has to be one of the Canal and River Trust's most promising fisheries - and it is living up to those promises with big nets being taken by pleasure and match angler alike. 

 

Boddington Reservoir was completed in 1805 to supply water

to the Oxford Canal. Since then, wildlife such as birds, insects

and wild flowers have gradually colonised the area. It’s famous

for some of the best fishing in the country and anglers regularly

make the news with record-beating catches.
