Barston Lake is a 125-peg, 21 acre match and pleasure water at the West Midlands Golf Club in Solihull, one of the highest-profile venues in the Midlands for open matches and carp fishing, with carp to 37lb. 2026 day tickets run £14.95 for eight hours up to £25.95 for 24 hours (overnight fishing needs a £25 annual permit on top), paid by card in the golf clubhouse before fishing, no cash taken. All fish are returned, barbed hooks and surface fishing are banned, and braid mainline is only allowed through the winter months. The smaller Match Pool, Jakes and Daisys lakes plus a stretch of the River Blythe complete the complex, with the clubhouse bar, food, toilets and showers on site; check for match bookings before travelling, as the main lake can be reserved.
