About Us

Specimen Carp Lake, West Devon, Cornwall, Milemead Fisheries

Welcome to Milemead Fisheries

Milemead Fisheries is owned and run by brothers Andrew and Paul Evenden.

They bought the rough grazing land known as Milemead in 1986.

Between them, they have built up the fishery from scratch, which is no mean feat 

when you realize that when they both started their dream, they were just 22 and 18  years old. 

Even now 34 years on the Fishery is still evolving.


The Fishery is located in a quiet valley approximately 2 miles outside of Tavistock, West Devon. 


With 5 coarse waters in total we can offer something for everyone,
from the complete beginner to the most serious specimen angler, 

with Carp to 36 lb - 5 oz's and Wels Catfish to 46 lbs. 


We have a well stocked fishing tackle and bait shop, selling top branded stock, 

snacks, cold drinks and most of the items that you left at home. 


Please note that due to the Covid-19 pandemic, 

we no longer have tackle hire, so you will need to bring all of  your own equipment to fish.


  FOR OUR FISH'S WELFARE AND SAFETY

YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN LANDING NET AND HANDLE WITH YOU 

AS OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO FISH

We do sell landing nets and handles in our shop if you don't have them.  


Ladies, Gents and a disabled access toilet are located adjacent to our shop.

We also have a separate shower room, with coin operated shower £1 per 10 minutes.

 We are also have a separate dish washing room, next door to the shower room.

Please treat the Fishery, it’s wildlife and other Anglers with respect
Enjoy your Fishing .....
