Plans have been unveiled this week for Britain’s first undercover commercial fishery.

By September 2004, Lakeview Fishery, Leics, will be open to anglers who want to catch their carp in a climate controlled environment.

The £ 200,000 project will see the walls go up around two 26 peg waters, whilst a heating system will ensure the air temperature remains at a constant 14 degrees throughout Winter.
