Fox's Pool is more open and slightly smaller than The Bowl at about an acre-and-a-half in size. Being only six feet deep throughout with an even bottom it is easy to fish and with The Orchard is the most popular water at Arden Fisheries.

Stocked predominantly with mirror and common carp in the 2lbs to 3lbs range, it holds a good head of fish to about 15lbs and regularly produces doubles.

Fox's appeals mainly to anglers who want to catch a lot of fish rather than wait for one big one and is a popular match venue where the current record stands at 139lbs and where weights of 70lbs regularly win matches with back-up weights of between 50lbs and 60lbs needed to get into the money.

Although Fox's is right next to the car park and has a wide and even grass bank all the way round, it is about 10 feet below the car park level so disabled anglers may need assistance getting down the access slope or steps which lead to the water.

Although many anglers fish Fox's using a pole, most matches are won by anglers fishing a carp rod about three feet out from the bank using a waggler.

Once again magots, sweetcorn, pellets, luncheon meat and paste are the most popular baits, but anglers should not use too much groundbait. The recommended technique is to bait the swim with a little groundbait, pellets or free offerings and hook samples and then feed a few free offerings at intervals throughout your session. Overfeeding tends to put the fish off and could prove counter productive.
