Hightown Lake is a fishing lake near Ringwood in Hampshire. It was formed after gravel extraction had finished and was used for water skiing, but now it is exclusively for fishing. It is run by Ringwood and District Angling Association and is one of their top carp venues with fish to over 45lb. It is also a good bagging venue with a large head of bream, roach and tench. The lake is about 22 acres in size and has an island of about 4 acres in the middle. The depth is up to 13 feet.

The delightful Coy Pond is Bournemouth is the perfect place for a stroll. Circle around the lake via a paved walkway lined with willow and alder trees or perch yourself on the green riverbanks for an idyllic picnic.

Once an area of desolate gravel pits, the landscape here has been utterly transformed by the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust, in partnership with two water companies. Now a series of thriving lakes with fishing, sailing, youth education and wildlife, there’s a lot going on here despite its general serenity. Summer is a lovely time of year to visit but in winter, the bird hides come into their own as many flighty folk overwinter here from colder countries further north. Lapwings, terns and oyster catchers throw Christmas parties here. There are public toilets at the north of Ivy Lake and several car parks.
